As the name implies, Armor Cores sit at the center of your Spartan's armor and are the foundation upon which everything else is built. Your chosen Armor Core dictates the overall look of your Spartan, and can be pulled from the wider Halo universe, or even be non-canonical and expand beyond Halo's reach (like the Samurai-inspired armor we've seen in trailers). John-117: " Spartans, this is what we've trained our entire lives to do. If we lose here, we lose everything. Let's send our own message." Spartans: " Sir, yes, sir!" — John encouraging his comrades [4] In 2544, John deployed in Operation: IRON FIST to perform asset denial and recovery of critical cyberinfratsructure assets on Miridem. Shortly after, he led a SPARTAN-II group in Operation: WARM BLANKET at Ascon to board Luro 'Taralumee's Third Fleet of Glorious Consequence in recovering the captured Doctor Halsey from enemy hands. During this battle, John fought Thel 'Lodamee in single combat and was ultimately nearly defeated before Thel was forcibly removed from the situation by the fleet's slipspace jump. [35] [37] The following year, John led Blue Team in a retaliatory action in the Battle of Draco III, following the Covenant's civilian slaughter of the planet.

While he is almost universally known to the public as humanity's champion, only a select few have gotten to know John personally.

Exiting the portal John and the Weapon found themselves inside a Forerunner structure known as the Repository. There the AI uncovered a message left behind by Escharum where he taunted the Spartan with a recording of Esparza being tortured and in which he embedded his coordinates so as to make it easier for John to find him. [128] Proceeding through the Repository, the Master Chief and the Weapon discovered many fragments and memories of Cortana, shining the light on the events that led to creation of the Weapon in the first place. Observing Cortana's cruel actions during the Created conflict, the Weapon was horrified and became even more devastated when she realized that she was an actual copy of Cortana. Afraid of becoming as merciless as Cortana was she restored her deletion protocols and asked Chief to delete her. John refused, insisting that they would complete the mission together, though while he didn't trust her, he wanted to. [128] Halo Infinite Wrists upgrades may bring to mind some of Halo Infinite's equipment, like the repulsor or grappling hook, but Halo Infinite also lets you apply cosmetic armor pieces to your Spartan, which presumably provide a number of in-universe benefits you won't see in the game. Cortana oversees John sleeping in cryostasis, stranded on board the Forward Unto Dawn, lost in space. By August of 2558, John had completed two hundred and nine military operations, including one hundred and thirty-six full campaigns; more than anyone other UNSC personnel on record at the time. [3] Though John has commanded nearly every Spartan-II at one time or another, the lion's share of his career has been spent as fireteam leader of Blue Team. His actions during the Covenant War earned him every major UNSC service medal and combat award, save for the Prisoner of War Medallion, as well as several dozen civilian honors. [3] [6] [Note 1]
