One of the [[Spartan-II]] supersoldiers. '''Vinh''', a female, is not well known among the [[Spartan]]s, likely because she did not seem to have a close relationship with [[Master Chief|John-117]] or [[Spartan-104|Fredric-104]].  

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-Cloning|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]].  

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<ref>[[Halo: First Strike]], Page 14</ref>.  

She was then assigned to "Delta" Team by Fred, under charge of [[Spartan-043|Will-043]]. Their mission was to secure the fallback position for the Spartans- [[CASTLE Base]]<ref>[[Halo: First Strike]], Page 23</ref>. Vinh, Will, and [[Spartan-039|Isaac-039]] were separated from three other Spartans and the remaining members of [[Charlie Company]] but arrived at CASTLE Base<ref>[[Halo: First Strike]], Page 116</ref>. They were unable to enter the facility until Fred and [[Spartan-087|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.

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.  

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 Charge]]s 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 [[Spartan MIA Protocol|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.
