By the way before I begin I know that this should go in the Bungie Universe or Bungie.net community forums but those are dead. This is kind of off topic anyways. I'll start now.
Ok long story short, If you have read the books, you know that [url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Gage_Yevgenny]Gage Yevgenny[/url] crashed a pelican, and was soon greeted by an ODST.
Using that article I linked earlier, I learned that that ODST was [url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Rookie]The Rookie AKA "JD", or James.[/url]
My question is that where is there concrete proof that this is The Rookie? Anyone know?
Thanks.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] spartanguy123 Actually, I believe his name is James Dante, JD. James because of what Buck said, and Dante because of how much ODST was based on the Divine Comedy.[/quote] JD stands for John Doe, the name given to males who people either don't know his identity, or it is top secret.

You guys ever heard of calling your driver James or Jeeves? It's just a figure of speech, not necessarily his name.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Trick Not sure if his name is James but it was confirmed that the ODST that listened to Yevgenny's story is Rookie from Halo: ODST.[/quote] I'm pretty sure the part where Buck says Keep it steady James is just a saying. I don't think his name is James.

By the way sorry for the long reply, I did something.

He's in the Halo Evolutions short story "Dirt". More info [url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Dirt]here.[/url] EDIT: Wait, you knew that. Also, I heard that Frankie confirmed it was the same Rookie from Halo 3 ODST somewhere. Can't remember. [Edited on 07.22.2011 3:33 PM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ICanHazRecon911 Read the wiki. [/quote] Nope. While Buck does say James in ODST, nothing has been confirmed.
