==Biography==  

Musa was abducted in [[2517]] along with the other SPARTAN-IIs. As a result of his body rejecting some of the [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|augmentations]], Musa was forced into a wheelchair for the rest of his life. He held a grudge toward [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] and the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] not only for his own predicament, but also for the other candidates who were either maimed or killed by the augmentations. Even though he viewed the SPARTAN-II Program as morally repugnant, Musa also recognized the importance of their accomplishments during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. He believed that Spartans were still necessary in the aftermath of the war and as a result, he proposed that more Spartans be created, in the form of the [[SPARTAN-IV Program]]. In [[2553|January 2553]], he brought together several [[admiral]]s at [[HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6]] to discuss the development and necessity of the new Spartan program as an [[Spartan (branch)|independent branch]] within the UNSCDF.<ref name="initiation"/>

As a commander, Musa is the second-highest-ranking member of the SPARTAN-II Program, (active or otherwise). He is outranked only by [[Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]].
