"Elites can dodge just about anything you shoot their way. Luckily, seeker drones don't care much for gymnastics."

— Private Jamie O'Neal

"Our sergeant had been a tracker. He led us through those ice ravines, like we were on a hiking trip. Kept saying. 'Just a little further!'"

— Sergeant Tom Winter

"If you could get a hold of a plasma grenade, you could stick it to just about anything. Including a Grunt's forehead. Boom!"

— Lieutenant Stefan Morris

"The flight into the airbase was a sight I will never forget... the ground was littered with destroyed Wraiths. What she did that day was truly amazing."

— Private Victor Quintana

"I lost two of my best friends that day. Woulda lost a whole lot more getting off that planet if it weren't for Spartan Palmer."

— Private Gerry Payne

"Those little yelping Grunts kept throwing themselves at our positions. They kept on coming like water through a busted damn."

— Private Peter Zhou

"The technology was alien, the time was limited and the resistance was thick. That we managed to do it all in five minutes is a tiny miracle."

— Private Guy Amjad

"Brute Chieftains fight as barbaric as they look, one hit from that hammer and you ended up a puddle of bones and blood."

— Private Aaron Landvik

"The colony was as broken as our morale, but we had to fight on. We knew the Spartans wouldn't leave us with our backs against the wall."

— Sergeant Albert Sessa

"There were these big damn plants, like tentacles. I swear, it was like the planet was fighting us, too."

— Lieutenant Caitlin de Sauveterre

"Nothing better for flushing something out of cover than a grenade."

— Lieutenant Abbi Strand

"Killing Elites is like peeling an onion. You blast through the shields, then the armor, then the skin and bone. Alright... maybe not exactly like peeling an onion..."

— Sergeant Lindsay Asturias

"Getting those Wolverines up there was like dragging elephants through quicksand."

— Lieutenant Patton Liao

"Rifle's a security blanket as much as it is a weapon. Knowing you can pull the trigger and it'll make a loud noise is comforting. But if you want results? You use a rocket launcher."

— Lieutenant Jim Nikolai

"The horizon was just purple and gold. Thousands of Covenant forces, far as the eye could see."

— Lieutenant Chandana Pasternack

"The only way we could stop those suicide grunts was through sustained fire... slowing them down and hoping you were far enough away from the ensuring blast..."

— Private Samantha Hass

"Nearly a third of our battalion was lost on that bridge that day. The enemy artillery was simple too much for us..."

— Private Alexandra Tran

"The entire battle felt like a giant herd of elephants crashing into a giant herd of rhino, it was total chaos..."

— Private Edward Levesque

"Saw those Spartans use the Elite's tricks against 'em. Turn on the active camouflage, get all invisible, and stab them right between the ribs."

— Private Eric Salucci

"I'm a sniper, right? I'll take a target out before they even know I'm there. But the Stealth Elites? They might be even sneakier than me."

— Private Molly Markozi

"I still have nightmares about the Stealth Elites... they would come out of nowhere. You had to look very, very closely; you could see the air move just before they jump you. But then it was usually already too late..."

— Private Roger Alfarsi

"The Spartans were using hologram decoys and confusing the hell outta those Grunts. Never seen anything so funny."

— Lieutenant Elizabeth Kwan

"Those Spartans must have shields, right? I saw a Brute hit her so hard she shoulda crumpled like tissue paper."

— Private Harold Amundsen

"Marines called them Spirits because they were death reincarnate. They'd come out of nowhere, without a word, and just start dropping Covies in our front yard."

— Lieutenant Tara Nguyen

Flood Missions

"When facing the Flood, your standard-issue assault rifle is pretty much the best all-purpose weapon you can carry."

— Spartan Bethany Kossup

"Our artillery came down on them like molten rain, and it was still barely enough to get the job done."

— Major Geraldine McNally

"Machine pistols are sloppy, but when I need to fight Flood Infection forms, sloppy's the best thing on the menu."

— Private Lewis Allen
