'''Headhunters''' are [[Spartan-III]] Special Operations squad. Only SPARTAN-IIIs that had survived two or more specially assigned training missions would be evaluated. Once an overall list of potential candidates was compiled, each soldier's personal files and mission reports were analyzed against a set series of parameters calculated by top [[ONI]] specialists. Once selected, candidates were separated from their fellow Spartans and shipped to a special training facility on the far side of [[Onyx]]. After three months, the soldiers were broken into four two-person squads, chosen through a series of detailed evaluations and an intense interview process meant to devise the best possible pairings between members of the group. For the next two years, the Headhunters would go through seven months of supervised field exercises, followed by six months' real-world wartime insertions. These SPARTAN-IIIs would go onto missions far behind enemy lines and would more than likely be expected to die in combat. | |||
Two Headhunter teams participated in a failed mission on an unnamed Covenant moon, with notable members including [[Jonah]] and [[Roland (Spartan)|Roland]]. | |||
