The comic suggests that all members of [[Fireteam Bailey]] sacrifice their lives to cover the delegation's escape; although only DeMarco's death is shown, there are six coffins in the funeral ceremony commemorating the fallen Spartans, ostensibly coinciding with the Spartans of Bailey along with [[Newman]] and [[To]], the two members of [[Fireteam Jackknife]] killed by Scruggs. Nonetheless, it was later clarified that the three other members of Bailey—[[Dunn (Spartan-IV)|Dunn]], [[Hong]], and [[Jones (Spartan-IV)|Jones]]—survived the battle.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/db05ce78845f4120b062c50816008e5d/topics/canon-fodder-1-15-15-just-getting-started/1091aee3-f861-4b8b-b405-f3dfd01a4e65/posts?page=2#post25 '''Halo Waypoint Forums''' - '' Canon Fodder 1-15-15: Just Getting Started'']</ref> It is possible that the other Spartans of Bailey were presumed dead and recognized at the memorial service only to be recovered later.
