Vice Admiral Hieronymus Michael Stanforth was the head of [[Office of Naval Intelligence#Section Three|Section THREE]] of the Office of Naval Intelligence from 2512-2530. Section THREE was at its busiest under his administration many projects were leverage in order to boost support for the war effort (including Project [[SPARTAN-II|SPARTAN]], [[MJOLNIR]] and [[Project GUNGNIR|GUNGNIR]]). In August of 2530 he resigned as head of Section THREE to take a more active role in the defense of UNSC space-leading the UNSC Navy in the [[Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]] and directing the [[Battle of Reach|Defense of Reach]] during its final days.<br>

===Discrepancies===
They gallantly gave their lives in the service
The memorial has several conflicts with later media. For example, [[Preston Cole]]'s date of birth is listed as April 4, 2484, when he was canonically born on [[2470|November 3, 2470]].<ref>'''''[[Halo: Evolutions]]''', page 415''</ref> The memorial also lists [[Michael Stanforth]]'s birthday as July 3, 2486, which would mean he was an admiral at the age of seventeen, suggesting that it too is an error. [[Admiral]] [[Margaret Parangosky]] is listed on the memorial, even though she was not killed in the [[Human-Covenant War]] and plays a crucial role in the subsequent [[Kilo-Five Trilogy]]. Since all ONI personnel who had appeared in canon at the time of the game's release are listed on the memorial, one may assume that their commemoration on the memorial is an Easter egg instead of canonical evidence for their deaths.
of the U.N.S.C.
 
===Trivia===
The memorial introduced the retconned length of the [[Fall of Reach]] (beginning July 25 instead of August 30, 2552), which would later inform the story of ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.
