MRL

With the boot lightened, the egg becomes quite apparent.

The Initials on Master Chief's Boots are three letters ("MRL") hidden on the bottom tread of the Master Chief's boot on Halo: Combat Evolved. They are, indeed, initials - those of Marcus R. Lehto, Halo's Art Director (and the man behind the Master Chief's skin). An easy way to see the initials if yor on a reflective surface (Example: Two Betrayals, on the Control Room's bridge) just look down and on his boot are the initials.
