Template:Article Quote Petty Officer Second Class Maria-062 was a Spartan-II of the UNSC Naval Special Warfare Group. She tested the Mark VI armor before it was handed over to John-117.
Biography
Special Warfare Center
Prior to the First Battle of Earth in October 2552, PO2 Maria tested the new MJOLNIR Mark VI Powered Assault Armor in Songnam, Kyonggi Province in Korea.
She fought against a squad of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers from the 340th ODST Combat Training Unit in a mock battle near the Special Warfare Center. After the exercise, the battle armor was approved for battle and was sent up to Orbital Defense Platform ODA-142 Cairo. There, it was issued to Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 [1].
Personal and Family Life
After retiring from active duty from the Navy, Maria started a family and had children [2]. It is possible, due to the Covenant invasion of Earth, that Maria rejoined the active duty force of the UNSC Navy.
Theory and Speculation
In Halo: The Fall of Reach, just as the remaining thirty Spartans are informed of their new mission to bring a Prophet to Earth for interrogation on ending the Human-Covenant War, it is said that out of their thirty-three that there had only been three KIA and one Spartan too wounded to continue active duty [3]. Since the release of the Halo Graphic Novel, it is widely assumed that Maria is the wounded Spartan mentioned in Halo: The Fall of Reach, but other evidence indicates that Cassandra may be that peculiar wounded Spartan. Then again, Cassandra may have instead been one of the Spartans who were crippled after augmentation, with some not even looking human anymore after the effects. Fhajad-084 was also crippled after augmentation.
