Transcript

Narrator: "For the first time in 43 years Lieutenant Shah returns to the site of the battle."

Narrator: "What is that?"

Lt. Shah: "A shell from a sniper rifle."

Narrator: "It's amazing there's still so many remnants out here... Where's Master Chief's grave?"

Lt. Shah: "I don't think anyone really knows. There was a ceremony five years ago, over there, just as a symbolic gesture. The coffin was empty."

Narrator: "Why was the coffin empty?"

Lt. Shah: "No Spartan could be listed as KIA. They can only be listed as MIA, missing, so it could be said that no Spartan can was ever killed in combat. So the ceremony was tribute, more than a burial."

Narrator: "It doesn't look like much."

Lt. Shah: "Chief told me once, that no soldier should be honored for doing what is expected."

Narrator: "Do you believe that?"

Lt Shah: "I did. And I still do."

  • Niraj Shah appears to have extensive burns along the right side of his face, presumably from wounds recieved during the war.
