Certainly hope not. Spartan III's suck. They were designed to be as cheap cannon fodder sent on suicide missions and were easier to replace.
SPARTAN-III Program
Main article: Spartan-III ProgramOutfitted and engineered by James Ackerson and the Office of Naval Intelligence, the SPARTAN-III program was the next generation of Spartan super soldiers, perfecting and rectifying all that the SPARTAN-II program could not. While they are inferior to the Spartan-IIs in terms of general strength, speed, etc, they were designed to be more numerous, better trained, cheaper, and expendable.
Personally I think it's just a typo. They don't look like Spartan III's and the III's would be like 10 years old at this point in time? (Except two, Tom and Lucy who would be training Spartan III's alongside Spartan II Kurt on Onyx)
