'''Tango Company''' is a [[UNSC Marine Corps]] [[company]] that was stationed on [[Reach]], that participated in the training of the [[Spartan-II]]s. | |||
==Background== | |||
Tango Company was tasked with playing games of capture the flag against the young Spartan-II trainees. | |||
As of July [[Seven refernces in Halo|14]], [[2523]] the [[Spartan]]s and the [[Marine]]s had played [[Seven references in Halo|seven]] such games, with Tango Company losing every one of them<ref name="multiple">[[Halo: First Strike]] pages 157-160.</ref>. Tango Company, tired of constant defeat, stopped playing by the rules. They began using live ammunition and abusing Spartan trainees that they caught in their territory. | |||
The men and women of Tango Company, tired of losing simple games to a few squads of twelve-year-olds, began referring to the Spartans as the "freak [[ONI Section Three|Section Three]] kids"<ref name="multiple">f</ref>. More than once they tortured the Spartans that were "captured" while playing the game. They brutally beat [[James]], whom they claimed had "fallen down a flight of stairs"<ref name="multiple">f</ref> in their single story jail while being transferred to a different cell. It took James a full week to recover from his injuries<ref name="multiple">f</ref>. | |||
Despite the Marines cheating, the Spartans were still victorious, winning once again; this time by infiltrating the base and detonating [[Stun Grenade]]s beneath Tango company's barracks buildings, inflicting many casualties. Then, neutralizing the guards around the flag pole with [[Narq-dart Pistol]]s, the Spartans snatched the flag and hid in the trees. Tango Company sent a [[Pelican]] transport in an effort to trick the Spartans into thinking their exfiltration craft had arrived. But, not fooled, the young supersoldiers once again outsmarted and overcame the hapless Marines. | |||
The flag was green with a single white star. | |||
