A topic was made on HaloWaypoint about making new or better names for Spartan Points, Spartan Ops, and Forerunner Vision. The following is what I came up with and posted on HaloWaypoint.<\/p>\n

——<\/p>\n

Spartan Points:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Resources
\n\u2022 Weaponry and Armory Resources (WAR)<\/p>\n

Spartan Ops:
\n\u2022 Spartan Deployment Initiative (SDI) <–this was also the moniker in the 1980s for Strategic Defense Initiative, introduced by then President Reagan. It was said to be the world’s first known space defense system.
\n\u2022 ONI Spartan Logistics Ops (OSLO) The irony here being that Oslo was the place of the Oslo Accords which were to bring peace to the Middle East.<\/p>\n

Forerunner Vision:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Luminous Telemetry
\n\u2022 Luminous Interfering Telemetry Enhancement (LITE)
\n\u2022 Transparent Refractive Anomalous Calefaction Enhancer (TRACE) To explain the long name: Transparent-pretty obvious there, Refractive-the change of direction of light (or sound), Anomalous (or anomaly)-devitation, Calefaction-a heated state (think thermal vision possibly), Enhancer-intensify\/magnify We would no doubt shorten this to T.R.A.C.E. vision. But at least it would have a long thought out name.<\/p>\n

As you can tell, I’m big on acronyms. I was in the U.S. Navy and acronyms were used all the time for a myriad of things. From missions to the most mundane things. So creating a name for some of these things, using acronyms for short makes a LOT of sense, given the nature of the military as it’s been for a long time.<\/p>\n
