Template:Infobox Military Unit Tango Company is a UNSC Marine Corps company stationed on Reach, that participated in the training of the SPARTAN-IIs.

Background

Tango Company was tasked with playing games of capture the flag against the young SPARTAN-II trainees. As of July 14, the Spartans and the Marines had played seven such games, with Tango Company losing every one of them. Tango Company, tired of constant defeat, stopped playing by the rules. They began using live ammunition and abusing Spartan trainees that they caught in their territory.

Despite the Marines' cheating, the Spartans were still victorious, winning once again; this time by infiltrating the base and detonating Stun Grenades beneath Tango company's barracks buldings, inflicting many casualties. Then, neutralizing the guards around the flag pole with stun rounds, the Spartans snatched the flag and hid in the trees. Tango Company sent a Pelican transport in an effort to trick the Spartans into thinking their exfiltration craft had arrived. But, not fooled, the young supersoldiers once again outsmarted and overcame the hapless Marines.

The men and women of Tango Company, tired of losing simple games to a few squads of 12-year-olds, began refering to the Spartans as the "freak Section Three kids". More than once they tortured the Spartans that were "captured" while playing the game. They brutally beat James, whom they claimed had "fallen" down a flight of stairs in their one-story HQ while being transferred to a different cell. It took James a full week to recover from his injuries.
