There is a time problem that I have seen in PFC Jenkins. He is around 18 in ''Contact Harvest.'' Yet in Halo 1 he seems to be around the same age. Also if the UNSC Marines are like the US Marines, Jenkins would not be a Private First Class after near 25 years of service in the Marines. There is a program in the US Marines that allows promotions for Time In Grade (rank). Unless Jenkins was in a numbers fights and other bad conduct acts, he would not be just a PFC after 25 years. He could be a Staff Sergent or higher. Another post does bring up a good point that Jenkins could have been in "the freezer" for number of long periods of time but that seems doubtful considering the war going on, but who knows. Despite this the book (Contact Harvest) is a good book, this is just a time line error.

:Yeah well Johnson was a Staff Sergeant since 2524, and also in September 2552. Maybe they were busy fighting, or went MIA for a while. The thing is, Halo: Combat Evolved was made in 2001, so Bungie didn't have that much planned. But later, Joseph Staten's like "Oh let's throw this character in, it'll be interesting." Then he realizes that he's been in service nearly as long as the Master Chief, and doesn't have a high rank. And if Jenkin's is in Johnson's squad, he can't be all that bad, right? I mean in CH, he even got a sharpshooter score on practice. əґыţєґιιб

Time in service promotions end after the Corporal rank in the United States Marine Corps, just so you know.
