==Background== | |||
It was stationed near the cities of [[Utgard]] and [[Gladsheim]], on [[Harvest]] <ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 173''</ref>. The leader of 1st Platoon was the then [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]]. | |||
First Platoon consisted of 36 Colonial Militia recruits, divided in three squads of twelve recruits each. | |||
==History== | ==History== | ||
On | On December 23, [[2524]], the [[Harvest militia|Harvest Militia]] began training for recruits, in order to handle internal security operations against the [[Insurrectionist]]s, who were causing instability across UNSC-controlled space with terrorist attacks aimed at civilians. There were two platoons established; First Platoon and [[Second Platoon|Second platoon]]. Each platoon had been split into three squads, with twelve recruits in each. | ||
The recruits of Second and First | The recruits of Second and First platoon were trained for approximately three months when on February 9th, [[2525]], they "graduated" from the [[Colonial Militia Training]] and were shown footage of [[skirmish on Minor Transgression|the battle]] between their squad leaders against a group [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]. Two days later, a pack of [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] from the Covenant arrived in a diplomatic meeting, in which the recruits provided security. However, a fight ensued, and a [[Osmo]], a member of First platoon, was killed in the fighting. | ||
On | On the 22nd, the platoons were stationed in [[Utgard]] while [[Staff Sergeant|Staff Sergeants]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]] and [[Nolan Byrne|Bryne]] were sent to a civilian convoy to assist the survivors; they were too late, and only managed to rescue one civilian. | ||
The next day, the platoons split to perform two operations. The first, led by Johnson, was a volunteer operation to secure the [[Tiara]] platform to ensure civilians evacuating in the cargo freighters escape safely. While they succeeded, seven recruits were killed in the fighting. Meanwhile, Bryne led Second platoon and the remainders of First platoon to defend [[Mack]]'s data center. However, they were attacked by a group of [[Type-25 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Brute Choppers]], killing three members of Second platoon. | |||
The fate of the surviving members is unknown, though it is presumed they joined the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. | The fate of the surviving members is unknown, though it is presumed they joined the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. | ||
