| '''Oly Oly Oxen Free''' is a six-note tone used as an all clear code by the [[Spartans|SPARTAN IIs]]. They had learned it from [[Deja]] when they were younger, and had used it ever since they first trained on [[Reach]].

| Oly Oly Oxen Free was very secret to the [[Spartans]]- no one but them and a select few outsiders knew it. These outsiders were close to the Spartan family, such as [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]], [[Cortana]], and [[Sergeant Johnson]]. The signal was thus very important to each Spartan, who would rather die than give up the significance of the tone, which could betray or endager their teammates.
