This 3rd in command nonsense is noncanon beause the rank structure isn't stated in the Halo Universe.--User:Mattwmetallica 05:17, 23 September 2006
In Halo: Ghosts of Onyx, Commander Richard Lash is second in command of the UNSC Dusk. His XO, is Lieutenant Commander Julian Waters (Halo: Ghosts of Onyx page 186). Lieutenant Commander does not denote third in command, but third in command is sometimes held by Lieutenant Commanders.--Rotaretilbo 17:40, 05 December 2006
- I have removed the FactOrFiction template and edited the article so it no longer states third in command.--Rot 1943 9.12.06
- I agree with Rot's decision, the term "Third in Command" is rarely heard anyway. In the case of Lash, he was the Dusk's "Acting CO", and Waters it's "Acting XO" while Captain Iglesias was absent. Normally, Lash would be XO, and who knows what Waters is called? Perhaps he had a specific duty e.g. Weapons, NAV, etc. -- Manticore
