Talk:UNSC Point of No Return

"Also a second ship of the same class as Point of No Return was seen under construction by SII-051 Kurt and two other Spartans in the book Ghosts of Onyx."

Can we get citation for this? I don't recall it and I'm too exhausted to go through this particular scene in Halo: Ghosts of Onyx.

well in chapter 3 pages 49 - 56 it says that there was the frame scaffold, a slipspace generator was seen along with vast amounts of materials needed to create another ship, and I doubt that they would leave all of that there since they were so pressed for resources.

Restart the Human Race

If this ship was so secret, I doubt that they ever expected the Covenant would find it. So wouldn't it make sense that they keep both male and female crew as well as frozen embryos? Once the Covenant had "exterminated" humanity they could recolonize a planet and save the human race! This has literally no base or importance, just some interesting conjecture...

You mean a generational ship? Well, if they did it wouldn't be the first time! -- Administrator Specops306 - Qur'a 'Morhek ^{Honour Light Your Way!} 09:14, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Which section?

In the article, it says that the PoNR was a mobile command post for ONI Section Two. Should it be Section Three? The black ops section needing a mobile command post I can easily understand, but the propaganda section needing one strikes me as a little odd. -- SFH 15:34, 29 November 2010 (EST)

It's Section Three, people present there (gibson, rich, ackerson, surgeon) are from section three, and in ghosts of onyx it is said to be the mobil command for NAVSPECWEP section three, that we know means ONI sec 3. Codename: SURGEON (talk) 15:31, 4 July 2014 (EDT)

NAVSPECWEP has a division called Group 3 which is different from ONI's Section 3. These are not referring to one another. Group 3 of NAVSPECWEP contains the Spartan-IIs. Group 2 of the same outfit contains the ODSTs. -ScaleMaster117 (talk) 16:55, 4 July 2014 (EDT)

they are in some way referring to one another. section three of ONI has "influence" on section three of navspecwep, "Some NAVSPECWAR units fall under the operational supervision of Section Three within the Office of Naval Intelligence.". In fact the spartan were put under NAVSPECWEP command so that ONI sec 3 could still keep control on them. Plus, when in the ghost of Onyx it is said that point of no return is mobile command of navspecwep section three then we see there is "a ONI section three people meeting", intending that people who command section three of navspecwep are from ONI sec 3 and also in other situations we see ONI section three operatives working on the ship (surgeon). "Point of No Return was the wartime field command and control platform for the UNSC Office of Naval Intelligence, NavSpecWep Section ThreeBold text", page after is about the meeting with a presentation of gibson and rich as "section three". Halopedia lists them as ONI sec 3, implicitly intending that section three of NAVSPECWEP is, in some way, more or less, sec 3 of ONI, or at least that navspecwep sec 3 high ranked officers are from ONI sec 3. And more: navspecwep/navspecwar is not ONI itself, but navspecwep sec 3 is ONI as above in bold, if it's ONI it's for sure section 3, due to the nature of it's work.

I can paste many posts from users that believe it like me, this is from halopedia: "..Section III's NavSpecWar and NavSpecWep departments.." (specops306, admin) or waypoint "Section 3 refers to ONI section 3, home of navspecwep, the SPARTANS, and other ONI Black Ops"

I know it can be hard to understand, because of confusion and lack of clearness in the official canon, but even forgetting about navspecwep, there is no evidence of point of no return being section two, while there is tons about it being section three.
