E2-BAG/1/7, or First Battalion, Seventh Regiment from Eridanus II, is a UNSC Marine Corps unit.[1][2]

Operational history

After Eridanus II had fallen in 2530, the unit was apparently reassigned to defend other human colonies. Following the Battle of Reach in 2552, elements of E2-BAG/1/7 were reassigned to New Mombasa, Earth along with other units as a part of the UNSC's efforts to bolster the defenses of Earth's tether cities.[1] During the Battle of Earth, the Third Squad from the Kilo Company of E2-BAG/1/7 fought alongside MCPO John-117 in New Mombasa. The Spartan later met Kilo Company's commanding officer, Lieutenant Parisa, in the unit's command post at Palace Hotel where they planned a counterattack to retake the city's industrial center from the Covenant and destroy a Scarab.[3]

Subordinate units

  • Kilo Company
    • First Platoon
      • Third Squad

Known personnel

Trivia

  • E2-BAG/1/7 was interviewed by Dr. Robert McLees on multiple UNSC and Covenant vehicles and firearms that appear in Halo 3. Some of these interviews were posted on Bungie.net's front page.[2]
  • They are known as one of the "ghost battalions" of Eridanus II.[1] This may be a reference to them still retaining the planetary designation "E2" despite the planet having been glassed long ago.
