Talk:Jacob Keyes

I think because he was Outstanding Airman of the Year, he probably knew how to fly a longsword well. --JohnSpartan117 15:30, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Thats how he could fly the covey drop ship with easy.--Ryanngreenday 20:07, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Then saying that the airman medal means something else would be wrong. I think they are awarded to naval pilots arent they?--JohnSpartan117 03:05, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Airmen of the year is awarded to one enlisted member of the US Air Force a year. Keyes is an officer in the Navy. -ED 02:07, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

yea and pilots can be promoted to command ships in the navy but doesnt keyes just go through the lunar academy and not be a pilot?J!MMY8806 10:39, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Exactly, I think that part of the note should be removed. He was a Pilot, the space navy is technically the air force (proven by the fact that todays space exploration is considered the air force). I think that the note should only tell that the ribbons are out of order.--Lt.O'Brien 13:49, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Captain Keyes is awsome it sucks that he had to die -File:Also halo.jpgяÏΜFÏяΣ^{the rebel anarchist}File:Black sun.jpg 14:17, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I really didn't know military decorations had to be worn in a certain order... Can someone find me proof of this fact? OR tell me waht order they are supposed to be worn in? 14:27, 28 June 2007

• Perhaps in the 26th century, the medal is awarded for excellence in piloting large starships as well as aircraft.--The All-knowing Sith'ari 14:04, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Cortana?

When you kill Keyes on the Truth and Reconsilitation level, Cortana says something like "No... Without the captain... The covenant-" and then gets cut off with the respawn. What is the full part?

She's supposed to say "No! Without the Captain, The Covenant have already won." It's probably an oversight while Bungie was testing the game. Respect them Grunts, --Mouse among men 03:17, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Luna

How do we know that Keyes went to the OCS on Luna? On pages 19-20 of Fall of Reach, Keys and Dr. Halsey talk about the event that occured at his OCS, but they don't mention Luna. On page 134 Ensign Lovell says that he attended OCS on Luna, but on page 28, it says that reach also has OCS schools. How do we know Keyes went to the one on Luna? Is there more information I am missing? Not Now John 05:36, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Unless it's in GoO, there's NOTHING about Keyes going to OCS on Luna; I'm takin' that bit out. g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 05:40, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Repairing

I, Private George Skywalker, have come to repeair the article Jacob Keyes. The article is placed under Quarantine Zone. Quarantine Zone is a process of a major repair. During the process any user must not disturb it. The article will be completed in few days. So wait until the Zone has been deactivated. George Skywalker 07:47, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

He was in the navy from 2517 to 2552, 35 years not 26 - Lordmutt

Years of Service

Isn't Keyes in the military for twenty-five years, not thirty-five? The instruction manual and strategy guide for Halo: CE said he was in the Navy for a "quarter-century", which means it was twenty-five years. I am correct, no?--Blemo 23 ^TALK • _{CONTRIBUTIONS} • _{SERVICE RECORD} 03:48, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm not busting out the books myself because I'm extremely tired, but I've read the manuals and noticed a lot of inconsistencies that are just slight oversights. I imagine they're getting typed up last minute after the actual game is made.--IIIIIIl 05:23, September 5, 2009 (UTC)

Service number

There seems to be two different service numbers on this page, both near the bottom. I would love to go and check my copy of The Flood, excpet i've just moved house and all my books are in boxes. Could someone sort that out? -Frozenjakalope 21:48, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Best of Intentions

Keyes wants to make sure that the outstanding soldiers of the UNSC are recognized as such, and makes requests to get them to work under him. But it did more harm then good, leading them to be killed. First, it was Lovell, who was finally starting to climb out of his incompetent rut. Then it was Jeffries, who had a family and whose life was endangered by Keyes twice, the second time causing his death. Template:Arby116Sig

They were fighting a war and Jeffries worked in the military, his life would be endangered no matter what. Bman3k 07:32, September 17, 2010 (UTC)bman3k
