From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

(Kurts reminiscence in the past from his training as a Spartan..)
("afterwards" is slang.)
Line 13: Line 13:
The [[Spartans]] were rudely awakened early in the morning by [[Franklin Mendez|CPO Franklin Mendez]] and his instructors at 0530 hours. Mendez ordered them to go to the showers and those who hesitated were hit with an [[Electric Baton]] as "encouragement". After that they went outside and [[Chief Petty Officer Mendez]] ran them through 100 reps of jumping jacks, sit ups, deep squats, knee bends, and leg lifts.

Afterwards, Mendez and the instructors jogged them about a mile to [[Déjà]], a "dumb" [[AI]] that taught them a wide variety of lessons, including mathematics, science and history between physical training. Their first lesson was a video of the original Greek [[wikipedia:Spartans|Spartans]] fighting against Persian soldiers at Thermopylae. Then they jogged two miles to the "Playground", a maze in mid-air with a bell at the top, where they were divided into teams of three. The last team to reach the bell at the end would not get supper, as an incentive to win. Though [[Master Chief|John-117]] reached the bell first, his other team-mates were last, forcing them all to do without supper.
