Multiple [[D77-TC Pelican]]s touched down on the parade ground at [[Camp Currahee]] at around 1953 hours to unload the recruits, who streamed out of the dropships at the behest of Senior Chief Petty Officer [[Franklin Mendez]] and were met by [[Lieutenant]] [[Kurt Ambrose]]. When the [[Mjolnir]]-clad [[Spartan-II]] first spoke, his voice carried by the camp's public address system, the children stopped moving and fell silent, amazed by the armored giant. As they crowded before him Kurt offered them the chance to become like him so that they might destroy the Covenant. He noted, however, that only three hundred slots were ultimately available and that the process of determining who would fill that roster would began that night. Mendez then ordered the children back onto the [[Pelican]]s and they each proceeded to shuffle aboard, after only some hesitation. After they were airborne once again each recruit was given a [[Falcon Wing aerial descent unit]] and told to jump from their [[dropship]]'s rear bay if they wanted to be a [[Spartan]].
