Archive:Halo 4 Infinity Challenge enlistment verification

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

The Halo 4 Infinity Challenge and Global World Championship tournaments required prospective players to sign up to gain access. Upon successfully signing up, they were sent an in-universe email enlistment verification. The enlistment verification includes a few minor lore details, that at this time are considered (for the purposes of this site) to be apocrypha - that is to say, officially-published marketing material of dubious canonical value. The text features an oath of office acceptance that is almost identical to that used by the modern-day United States Armed Forces.[1]

A transcript of the email, and some screenshots, are listed below.
