Will we ever see the Spartan II and IIIs that are still alive as Spartan IVs I would like blue team to form up again possibly with tom, ash, lucy, and the other IIIs I would love Kelly, Linda, and Fred to team up with John. I would also like to know about the missing red team members from Halo; Wars.
The S-IIs I wager have a higher chance of having major roles in the future, the IIIs not so much. 343 Industries seemed to have forgotten about them for the most part and I can imagine why.
hmm well they are still in the books not sure about mortal dictate and Thursday war but they are important in glasslands and I like Lucy even if the IIIs and osmand hate Halsey

I’m fine not seeing the III’s return. They really bored me. Spartan II’s are the most interesting at this point and most of those characters have yet to make a significant appearance in game.

Yeah well, they have nothing to do with pretty much anything in Thursday War and Mortal Dictata. That and the IIIs don’t really mesh well with the re-evaluation of the ethics and morality of the Spartan-II Program that 343 Industries is attempting. Can’t blame Halsey for it either, so that is a bonus.

So we have a bunch of war orphans turned into cheap super-solider to trade their lives for time and we are never going to address the moral complexities of that program or even explain where they ended up?
That would just be stupid.
I’d also rather see Halsey exonerated but with Osman as head of ONI I don’t see that happening. The IVs have Jun and Fred according to Halo Nation but I did not see Linda, Kelly, or any of the others.
I hope to see some other spartan IIs that can perhaps be John’s companions through out the game, now that cortana is gone
There are 3 spartan Is, I think on the spirit of fire 
See this video for evidence Blue team will be in Halo 5.
I’m 95% sure we’ll see Blue Team in Halo Xbox One, but I highly doubt we’ll see any Spartan IIIs (Tom and Lucy do have a chance, however).
My best uneducated guess? The remaining II’s and III’s get their own program… not Spartan IVs but something else. I won’t go so far as to say Spartan Vs, but if anyone deserves an upgrade it’s those veterans. If Halo 5 features Chief going rogue, then it stands to reason the UNSC will upgrade their best hitters to take him down. Think about it - that’s what Spartans were created for - to take down terrorists. The irony would be fitting…
> I’m fine not seeing the III’s return.
I pretty much agree with this. Spartan IIIs are my least favorite.
I hope that at least one Spartan II is introduced later though.
The III’s were incorporated into the IV’s so we may well have seen them as one of the teams in Sops and just not known about it. We might find out more about the whole thing in the new comic but who knows.
pretty sure that kelly will turn up

there is a lot of supporting evidence there and I should have onnected the dots when they hired the guy from republic commando. this would also help with coop as there would be four spartan IIs to play as.
On a side note after looking through each spartan program particularily the IIs I noticed there are at least 11 still alive/missing Naomi 010, Douglas 042, Linda 058, Kelly 087, Jerome 092, Victor 101, Fred 104, John 117, Alice 130, Black team, and Grey team(Jai-006, Adriana-111, Mike-120). hopefully we find out about the spartans aboard the Spirit of Fire.
and six of these are 100% active as of 2553 what happens out of the contexts of the books and games I’m not sure but there are six active and 8 missing Spartan IIs

How do you incorporate kids who likely aren’t old enough to join the Marines or Army and not have anybody question it?

ages are classified maybe? We know that the surviving IIs and IIIs were offered spots in the IV program, we just don’t know how many accepted the offer.

Probably going to be hard to adapt 14 and 15 year olds. Granted, by Halo 4, they’d be old enough, but for them to initially get into the program? I can’t see it work.
well according to glasslands the Beta company is 20 in 2553 and Gama is 14 making them 25 and 19 respectfully. This is assuming that Halo X1 takes place in 2558.
