Find LingLing's head[edit]

If the base's gate hasn't been opened, you can see faint outlines of a dog's head and a grunt's head on the big metal base in the bottom middle of the gate. The inside-facing image looks like a dog's head, and the outer side is a grunt's head, with respirator. This is much easier to see if you throw a Anskum-pattern plasma grenade at it.

Trivia[edit]

  • It is possible to see the signs when it is not the correct date. First put the date of one of the signs in the Xbox or PC options and then play Halo 2 (while not connected to the internet or Xbox Live) and go to Zanzibar. You will see the sign of which ever one's date you put on the Xbox or PC.
  • The sign on October 31 is the same as the splatter medal in Halo 3.
