| ==Organization==
| | A Regiment is one of the many smaller unit's that make's the [[UNSC Marine Corps]], similar to the much older [[United States Marine Corps]]. These Regiments are the primary fighting force seen in sustained operations. |
| A regiment is composed of three [[battalion]]s, as well as an addition group of personnel assigned as "Regimental Headquarters Section", totaling to approximately three thousand personnel. While this personnel number is ideal, it is rarely matched exactly in the field.{{Ref/Reuse|enc55}} Regiments are traditionally commanded by a [[colonel]],{{Ref/Reuse|enc55}}<ref name="osfm">''[[Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual]]'', p. 143</ref> though [[brigadier general]]s may hold command over a regiment in some cases.{{Ref/Reuse|enc55}} | |

|
| While a handful of infantry regiments exist in the [[UNSC Army]],<ref name="hsa">''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]'', [[Halo: Spartan Assault/Quotes|Quotes]]</ref> the Army makes use of permanent [[brigade]]s in lieu of regiments, though their unit compositions are largely similar to Marine regiments.{{Ref/Reuse|osfm}}<ref>''[[Halo: Reach]]'', campaign level, "[[Tip of the Spear]]"</ref>
| | ==Composition== |
| | A Regiment Consists of three to five Battalions at a total of 3,200 personnel commanded by a [[Colonel]]. |
