 *[[Mason Hundley]]'s biography on Waypoint originally stated that he was born in [[2535]] and that he served "several years" in the [[Home Fleet]] before transferring to ONI in 2552. However, this would mean he enlisted in his mid-teens (too young to enlist even with parental consent) and joined ONI when he was 17 years old. The biography was later amended to say he was born in [[2532]], meaning he could have enlisted as early as age 16 with parental consent and transferred to ONI at age 20.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/characters/mason-hundley '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Mason Hundley'']</ref>
