Sergeant Johnson was part of the Spartan-I program, and all of his files have been sealed by ONI. [/quote] Actually, any of the [i] surviving [i] marines could be COALMINER. There could have been other officers who were killed by the Covenant attack, or just escaped the Circumfrence that possibly could be Akhersons informer. Also, after reading the messages sent by Coalminer and reading/listening how Johnson talks, it looks and sounds like they are two different people. [/quote] It's not impossible for someones style of writing and speech to be different. I know I'm capable of making large changes to both my style of speech and writing. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] opogjijijp We also know from the HGN that Ackerson has been interested Johnson, and was trying to get into Johnson's files and he suspects that Johnson is a Spartan-I [/quote] It's kinda disputed that the pictures at the end of the HGN are in fact canon. It says that they are just artists illustrations of their view of the Halo Universe, nothing more. Artists illustrations of a moment from the Halo Universe. I think we can assume page 122 is canon.
