| | The [[CPOMZ]] file found on [[Colonel James Ackerson]]'s computer was discovered in [[CASTLE Base]] by, [[Dr. Halsey]]. The file contained star charts and information on the Forerunner artifact found on [[Sigma Octanus IV]]. It also contained a full map of the CASTLE base facility on [[Reach]] that included a path to artifact, the [[Forerunner Crystal]], beneath the surface of Reach. |

| '''S-III''' was a folder on [[Colonel]] [[James Ackerson]]'s [[Personal computer|computer]] at [[CASTLE Base]] on [[Reach]]. When [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]] hacked the computer, she discovered two folders, S-III and [[KING UNDER THE MOUNTAIN]].<ref name="HFSC13">''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', Chapter 13</ref>

| ===CPOMZ===
| |
| Contained in the S-III folder was a file called "CPOMZ", which contained celestial coordinates in the form of a 512-character alphanumeric star chart reference string. Halsey used the CPOMZ coordinate string to locate the planet [[Onyx]] which housed the [[SPARTAN-III program]].{{Ref/Reuse|HFSC13}} The letters CPOMZ are also an acronym for [[Senior Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]], the man who trained the [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN-IIs]] at a young age. This lead Halsey to believe that SCPO Mendez was somehow mixed up with Ackerson. <ref name= GOOC16>''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'', Chapter 16</ref>

| ===Spartan-IIs===
| |
| In the folder were also extensive records of the SPARTAN-II program and its members,{{Ref/Reuse|HFSC13}} including a great deal of biomedical data.<ref name= "GOOC16"/> This indicated that Ackerson had knowledge of and an interest in the supposed top secret SPARTAN-II program.
