Personally, I find it much more interesting to write about a regular soldier; the average infantryman, than some super-powerful genetically-modified supersoldier whose universal backstory has been overdone one times too many. You must also take into account... most of the SPARTANs' greatness and success is due to genetic modification and high-tech powered armour, whereas a normal soldier doesn't have these amenities, making it much more difficult to do "great things".
