Minors saw action in a myriad of theaters during the decades-long [[Human-Covenant War]], during which time they would typically be treated as expendable cannon fodder. In the conflict's final year, minors fought in during the [[Fall of Reach]], the [[Battle of Installation 04]], the [[Battle for Earth]], the [[Battle of Installation 05]], and the [[Battle of Installation 00]]. After the war's conclusion, large numbers of Unggoy minors fought on behalf of Merg Vol's Covenant during the [[Battle of Draetheus V]] in [[2554]]. And though minors were not prevalent in [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]], they were noticeably present for the [[Battle of Installation 03]] in [[2557]]. | ||
