Lt. Commander Jameson Locke

So with the new Halo 2: Anniversary terminal trailer it is confirmed that Locke’s first name is Jameson and that he holds the Rank of Lt. Commander. This has me a bit intrigued because Spartan-IV’s don’t have a rank since their rank is Spartan.

Video.

But he is an ONI operative.

What kind of new terminal are you talking about?

Where is this trailer? I can’t seem to find it.

Ooo I see…that’s nice.

Otherwise when Chief calls Arbier as a friend?

I sure hope they manage to make him a moderately interesting character.

Well, they may retain something of their old rank. Palmer was called a lieutenant in Halo 4.

If I remember right a user in Universe said she was referred to as Lieutenant because it was a relic and didn’t have time to re-record the voice work. Also, she was a Corporal before joining the Spartans.

That’s what I was wondering. I don’t ever recall Chief referring to Thel’, but who knows.

That is the most likely scenario. Locke could still have more autonomy than most Spartans, however,

Honestly, I think that was just Musa saying a lame metaphor.

Well I haven’t seen any other Spartan-IV’s with ranks only titles. But it could just be a lame metaphor.

It’s not a lame metaphor. The Spartan branch has no ranks, only two titles.

No ranks? Each member of Noble was different than the other, mostly.

Noble wasn’t part of the Spartan Branch.

No, only the Spartan-IV branch has no ranks. Every other Spartan program before has had Spartan ranks. For example, John-117 is Master Chief Petty Officer, Carter-A259 was a Commander, Noble Six was a Lieutenant and so on. Perhaps Agent Locke has a rank because he is not a Spartan-IV? Maybe ONI has created their own super-secret Spartan program where they can have ranks?

Noble Team were Spartan-III’s and a Spartan-II hand-picked by Kurt-051 and Franklin Mendez to receive MJOLNIR combat armor and engage in special missions ordered by Special Warfare Command Group 3.
