That doesn't have anything to do with Bungie's addiction to 7. That's how it is at all military,police,or firefighters funeral. It is a 21 gun salute because it is 7 people shooting 3 shots each, no coincidence. You just saw 7 and thought Bungie put it in there just for you to find. I mean if the military gave Master Chief a whole memorial for his service and death and what he did, yea I'm sure they would give him the 21 gun salute. Oh yea i know all this cause I am on the Honor Guard at a military school. So the "Seven Marines fire their Battle Rifles in the air in the ceremony at the end of Halo 3." part should be erased.

Although Bungie didn't make the 21 gun salute, there's no way of telling whether they put it in their '''because''' of their favourite number, or whether it's coincidence.

:I'm afraid you're making a common mistake. What was fired at the end of Halo 3 was NOT a 21-gun salute, but rather a 3-volley salute. The difference is that a 3-volley salute consists of rifles firing blanks into the air simultaneously 3 times, as where the 21-gun salute uses artillery pieces, fired one at a time for a total of 21 shots. Very important is that a 3-volley salute doesn't necessarily need to have seven shooters, but rather an odd-number of shooters numbering 3 at the least and 7 at the most. Seven is the most common form, but since it is not the only form, the seven-man 3-volley at the end of Halo 3 can still be considered a 7 reference.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|18px]][[User:Rusty-112|<font color="Blue">Rusty</font>]][[User:Rusty-112|<font color="Red">-</font>]][[User:Rusty-112|<font color="Blue">112</font>]] 03:10, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

What about the fact that I-WOULD-HAVE-BEEN-YOUR-DAD-DY contains seven syllables? Is that just a coincidence?--[[User talk:Full Metal Fan|Full Metal Fan]] 21:26, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

::---Its a 7 reference. Bungie made only 7 multiplayer maps with birds on them. I only mentioned Rats Nest and its Hornets and Pelicans because someone might count them as birds. I think it should be added in with the other Halo 3 references. [[User talk:UEG Dero AD|UEG Dero AD]] 10:39, July 2, 2010 (UTC)

=="Under Our Noses"==
I added a bullet to Halo 3 regarding the time frame the first seven maps were released in (209 days, roughly seven months). I hope that's alright.
