| | The [[Ancestors]] produced several different ship classes of varying sizes |
| The '''symbols of the Office of Naval Intelligence''' are the primary symbols used to identify the organization and its divisions.

| | |
| ==Description==
| |
| ===Seal of the Office of Naval Intelligence===
| |
| The Seal of the Office of Naval Intelligence superficially resembles a stylized surveillance satellite, but it also represents a pyramid of knowledge with an all-seeing eye and an arrowhead directed to the heavens.<ref>''[[Halo Mythos]]'', p. 141</ref> Above the center circle reads "UNSC" and at the bottom, in between the edges of the outer circle reads "Office of Naval Intelligence". | |
| | |
| The colors of the seal can be inverted on dark surfaces.<ref name="darkonilogo">''[[Halo: Reach]]'', [[Transit Box DR44]] model</ref> In some instances, the text is removed from the seal.<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/projects/reach/article.aspx?ucc=enemies&cid=24043 ''Bungie.Net'': Reach Project page]</ref> The seal can be modified to include ONI units<ref>''[[Kilo-Five Trilogy]]'', promotional patch</ref> or locations.<ref>''[[Halo 4]]'', campaign level, [[Composer]]</ref>
| |
| | |
| ===UNSC derived logo===
| |
| [[File:ONI emblem.png|150px|thumb|right|The UNSC derived variant.]]
| |
| Another symbol, based on the UNSC's is also occasionally used. Featuring the bird with the globe, the main differences include the globe containing the "all-seeing eye" with triangles and stars surrounding it and the ribbon at the bottom containing the text "Office of Naval Intelligence" in it.<ref>''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', [[Veronica Dare]] model</ref>

| | *[[Jersey Morelli]] and [[Janissary James]] - New Jersey |
| | **Chapter 9 mentions Kamal needing to head to New Jersey. This is in reference to having to go meet Jersey Morelli. This is reiterated in Chapter 10 with Kamal being told that a driver at [[Jerry's Diner]] (possibly in Pittsburgh) will take him to New Jersey. When Kamal and Jersey meet, Jersey makes a sarcastic remark about heading to Atlantic City. When Jersey meets Rani in Boston in Chapter 10, he has NYC on his bags, something that Rani notices immediately. Also, he has an NYC accent something that Jersey himself mentions. As for Janissary, Jersey and Janissary live in the same building as mentioned in Chapter 1. Also when Durga brings up the emergency call it is for Bergen County, New Jersey which is on the western banks of the Hudson in the NYC area. |
| | *[[Rani Sobeck]] - Boston, Kentucky, and Washington DC |
| | **Sarah and Rani talk about leaving Boston in Chapter 10. |
