Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
Johnson asks for an ending that matches his life as a soldier. The terse request combines resolve with the dry humour that defines his voice. In the final stretch of Halo 3, it makes an impending loss feel personal without turning his courage into a lengthy speech.
