Why is he holding a Battle rifle? I thought they were just made in first strike...

no they were in use for a while, the spartans just didn't use them until now, and why would the current br be the first one there could have been many models before.

He looks a bit out of place within the other marines. They need to be... greener.

The prototypes were made in first strike.

But who says thats a BR? Could be a different model like with all the different pistols -.-

i don't remember the time span between first strike and the beginning of the first book. but the battle rifle was a prototype by first strike so it's possible it was in use on harvest.

"It is the year 2524. Harvest is a peaceful, prosperous farming colony on the very edge of human-controlled space. But we have trespassed on holy ground---strayed into the path of an aggressive alien empire known as the Covenant. What begins as a chance encounter between an alien privateer and a human freighter catapults mankind into a struggle for its very existence.

But humanity is also locked in a bitter civil war known as the Insurrection. So the survival of Harvest's citizens falls to a squad of battle-weary UNSC Marines and there inexperienced colonial militia trainees. In this unlikely group of heroes, one stands above the rest . . . a young Marine staff sergeant named Avery Johnson."

If I read it correctly.
