Shane-A112

Shane was a Spartan-III super soldier. He was born on 2525 and was orphaned when his parents were killed in The Battle of Harvest in 2531. He was sent to an orphanage after he was evacuated until he volunteered for the Spartan-III project at age six. He swore to get revenge on the Covenant for killing his family and destroying his home planet.

Shane was sent to Camp Currahee on Onyx to be trained with Alpha Company. The first day there, he was pushed out of a Pelican by another Spartan recruit, Robert, during a Falcon Wing descent exercise during night fall. When he landed he thought he pissed his pants. When they both landed on the ground, he and Robert began to fight, and had to be broken up by Chief Petty Officer Mendez and "Lt. Ambrose"

Despite Shane's scuffle with Robert in the initiation he eventually grew close to both Robert and Jane, and together they were part of Team Wolf Pack. He was killed during Operation: PROMETHEUS, along with all 300 of the Spartans of Alpha Company, by a Plasma Mortar that caused him to fly in the air and land face first, unmoving and lifelessly. The last time Shane is however seen alive is when Kurt together with Colonel Ackerson, Mendez, Vice Admiral Parangosky and Rear Admiral Rich watches him fight for a moment through a unknown spartans video cam until he, along with Team Wolf Pack. died

He is most likely assumed to be killed in action but without any evidential proofs he must be listed as MIA or WIA, since SPARTANS are never listed as KIA.

It is also worth mentioned that Kurt disliked the fact that SPARTAN-III's were only sent out on high risk operations wearing less protection than the SPARTAN_II's. The differences between the more expensive but more effective MJOLNIR suit and the SPARTAN-III's SPI (Semi-powered infiltration armor) made it more difficult for SPARTAN-III's to survive. Kurt also knew that the candidates for the SPARTAN III program didn't completely matched the perfect psychological and genetic markers set in Dr. Halsey's original selection protocols.
