One of the Spartan-II supersoldiers, Vinh is not well known among the Spartans, likely because she did not seem to have a close relationship with John-117 or Fredric-104.
Biography
Childhood
Vinh was conscripted into the SPARTAN-II program in 2517 at age six, when Dr. Catherine Halsey singled her out as a physically and intellectually superior child. She was abducted from her home and replaced with a flash clone. She was then taken to Reach where she was trained with the rest of the Spartan soldiers by Deja and Chief Petty Officer Mendez.
Reach
Vinh was never mentioned by name until the Battle of Reach in 2552. She was assigned to Red team, under charge of Fred. They were assigned to the surface of Reach to defend the generators for the orbital MAC guns. As they descended, their Pelican, Bravo 001, was hit and the Spartans were forced to jump from the crashing vessel. Vinh was wounded during this jump, suffering a torn deltoid muscle, three broken fingers, and a herniated disk[1].
She was then assigned to "Delta" Team by Fred, under charge of Will-043. Their mission was to secure the fallback position for the Spartans- CASTLE Base[2]. Vinh, Will, and Isaac-039 were separated from three other Spartans and the remaining members of Charlie Company but arrived at CASTLE Base[3]. They were unable to enter the facility until Fred and Kelly-087 met up with them and whispered Oly Oly Oxen Free into the speaker of the facility. Dr. Catherine Halsey was present, and opened the door for them. She was then checked out by Dr. Halsey and sent to survey perimeter defenses for the facility. This proved unnecessary however, as the Covenant attacked immediately.
Disappearance
Vinh, Isaac, Fred, Kelly, Will, and Dr. Halsey were then trapped under CASTLE Base for several days after Halsey activated Operation: WHITE GLOVE to destroy the base and keep it from falling into enemy hands. Vinh was able to upgrade her MJOLNIR armor with parts salvaged from the base. These upgrades were being conducted in field-testing and had yet to be certified. Vinh received a new linear accelerator added to her shield system, essentially doubling its shielding output.
After Fred discovered the massive room containing the Forerunner Crystal, it sent a massive radiation spike that allowed the Covenant to triangulate on the group's position. A Covenant Gravity Lift quickly appeared. The group retreated to a nearby tunnel, as Vinh and Isaac dropped Satchel Charges to cover the Spartan's tracks. The Charges detonated, but Vinh and Isaac disappeared. They could not be raised on the COM and it is highly likely that they are dead. Vinh is listed as MIA, but is assumed to be KIA. It is possible, though extremely unlikely, that she was captured by the Covenant and is still alive, although the Covenant is said to never take prisoners.
