Date of Birth
If Johnson joined the Marine Corps when he was 19, and ORION received their volunteers in 2491, doesn't that mean his date of birth was at least 2472? Template:Sonasig
Johnson and the Flood
Regarding Johnson and his apparent "Flood immunity", I feel this article contradicts itself.
First we have, in the "Human-Covenant War" section:
- "However, the Boren's Syndrome story (referred to as the "Paris/BS Spoof"), was a hoax to cover up Johnson's involvement in the ORION Project, and his survival from the Flood was due to his exceptional fighting skill as a result of the procedures performed on him during the ORION project."
And then we have, in the "Battle of Installation 04" section:
- "Johnson fought his way out of the nightmare through sheer tenacity and firepower."
But then we have, in the "Operation: FIRST STRIKE" section:
- "They matched Johnson’s survival against the Flood to his Boren’s Syndrome. Flood DNA was present in Johnson’s blood, but it was dormant and non-infectious. Halsey also confirmed that Johnson had gained some unique regenerative abilities as a side effect from the attempted assimilation back on Halo when they accidentally opened the Flood Containment Facility."
To me, this last extract seems to be inaccurate. The first two extracts suggest that Johnson fought his way out because he is just that badass and/or is exceptionally strong and resilient due to his ORION Project augmentations. However, the last extract reinforces the since-discredited view that Johnson, either because of illness or his ORION augmentations, is actually immune to the Flood. I would remove it, but I'm not entirely certain where we currently stand on Johnson and the Flood's effect on him. It would also mean retconning one of First Strike's most interesting subplots.--The All-knowing Sith'ari 10:50, 28 October 2011 (EDT)
