SPARTAN-II training: Difference between revisions

Have you ever wondered what made the [[Spartan-II]]'s nearly invincible and matchless? This is their pain, sweat and blood.

Between [[2511]] and [[2517]], 150 six year old children were selected from perfect psychological and genetic markers that were set in [[Dr. Halsey]]'s selection protocols. They screened them for certain genetic markers: strength, agility, even predispositions for aggression and intellect. But due to lack of facilities and funding, only 75 children were actually chosen for the program, since not all of the children were perfect for the project, there were environmental factors, mutations, learned ethics, and a hundred other factors that made them unacceptable.  

Then, they were taken from their homes in the middle of the night, injected with a chemical that made them sleep for a long time, some times in between the dates: August 17-September 23, which is 75 children taken from many various worlds in only 38 days. They had then all been rushed through [[Slipspace]] to [[Reach]], where they were going to be trained. They were only recently brought of cryosleep when a woman that they did not know yet told them that they would be indoctrinated into the UNSCDF to defend [[Earth]] and all her colonies, and that they could not return to their parents, that there would be a great deal of hardship on the road ahead, encouragement, and various other things. The children were then escorted to barracks were they had a something to eat, and went to bed at around 11:30 PM.
