In two levels of Halo 3's campaign (The Storm and Floodgate), one can find a Missing Person Poster lying around. The alleged missing person shown on the poster is Jason Jones, co-founder of Bungie Studios.
Locations[]
The poster is in the same spot in both The Storm and Floodgate (as they take place in the same area), but the instructions for getting to it differ between each. The poster is, however, more difficult to read in Floodgate, due to the level's lack of light.
The Storm[]
Near the end of the level, as you enter the last outdoor area leading to the Anti-Aircraft Battery, make your way through the crowd of Brutes and Grunts until you get to the Prophet of Truth's hologram projector. At this point, turn left. You should see a narrow corridor with walls on both sides—walls that have openings in them. The poster can be found lying on the floor in one of the openings on the left side.
Floodgate[]
As you make your way down the hill and back into the factory complex, a Marine should radio in, "All squads, report!" At this point, go straight until you reach the corner, where flames can be seen behind a Fence Wall. Here, turn left. As with before, you should see a narrow hallway. The poster is lying on the floor in one of the openings along the right wall, past the dead Brute Chieftain with a Gravity Hammer.
