Talk:Kojo Agu
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
If Romeo was born on Madrigal, how come it doesn't sat anything about him being on the Rubble? or if he WAS on the Rubble?
Legal age
According to his Career Service Vitae Romeo enlisted when he was only 16 years old. For some reason he was able to enlist despite being far below the legal age.
Who said that 500 years from now on 18 is the legal enlistment age? We don't know about the UNSC's age policies, especially in a time of crisis. I doubt the guys at Bungie would make so obvious mistake, on purpose. If this has a legitimate source, correct me. But if not, these claims should be removed.--Jugus 08:39, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- You're right, to some degree. In none of the books or games does it say that the enlistment age is 18. However it is mentioned in I Love Bees. Before you go off and say that it isn't official canon, remember that Halopedia page on I Love Bees states that "I Love Bees should only be considered canon until contradicted elsewhere." In I Love Bees, Janissary James attempts to join the Marine Corps, but is rejected because she is not yet 18. However, Romeo being able to enlist before being 18 should not be taken as a refutation of the I Love Bees enlistment age canon, because the Unnamed Police Officer (Interrogator) tells Janissary that when he was her age he "pulled strings so he could join up a year early," meaning that although the official age is 18 it is still possible to join up when you are younger. Romeo could have done something similar.
- Another (though less likely) possibility is that because Romeo was a refugee it was harder to prove his actual age as many of his records may have been destroyed with his home planet. Thus his true age might only have been revealed after he was 18 and already in the Marines.
- A final possibility could just be a similar situation to that found during WWI and WWII; some recruitment officers struggling to meet their quotas and desperate for troops are willing to look the other way when an underaged teenager wants to join.
- My basic point is that until we find something that explicitly says otherwise, we should go with I Love Bees and say the enlistment age is 18.--Rusty-112 18:34, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- It is told that Sgt. Forge joined the UNSC at the earliest possible age, whitch was 16--Arabsbananas 02:12, September 10, 2009 (UTC)
Opening quote(s)
I just wanted to point out that Romeo responds, "Yeah?" when Buck mentions telling him to shut his mouth, rather than Buck saying "yeah" to him. Also, shouldn't we only have one quote to start the article? Also, does anyone else think that Buck's words about him in the "Desperate Measures" ViDoc would make a good quote? I'd add it in, but I can't catch all of what he says. Sith Alchemy 101 13:16, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

How Romeo became an ODST
It says in the Pre-Mission evaluation video on Xbox.com that Romeo became an ODST after angering the governor at castra. I added it to the wiki but idk if anyone would like to revise it or reorganize it. Just letting you all know. Rain R07 19:08, 9 September 2009 (PST)
Where did his pod hit?
I know where mickey's is. but I havent found romeo's. If someone finds it they should put it on here.
I'm pretty sure I found it in a park near Tayari Plaza, not certain that its his though. Field Master Spartansniper450 12:23, September 29, 2009 (UTC)
Quote
I think we should have his quote from the beginning of the game when he was given the sniper rifle. "What am I supposed to do with this inside a covenant ship" Somewhere on the page. I love that quote lol
Survival
How exactly did he manage to survive just because he had biofoam injected into him? As far as said, biofoam only packs and numbs the wounds, but Romeo had a punctured lung and clearly had blood spurting out of his chest. This means a high chance of blood flowing into his lungs the whole time and would lead to him drowning. Sure, he ends up almost suffocating which necessitated the biofoam needed to patch the hole, but it wouldn't have sucked the blood out from inside and he should have died anyway. Any explanation? --WolfMaster91 (talk) 15:21, 7 September 2014 (EDT)
