In [[2552]], he evaluated the members of NOBLE Team and apparently served as [[Special Warfare Group Three]] [[commanding officer]] and had operational control of the SPARTAN unit;<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=24530 '''Bungie.net:''' ''NOBLE Team Performance Reports'']</ref> it was his belief that NOBLE Team should be comprised of commissioned officers to give them the authority to alter operation parameters mid-mission.<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_012910 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 01.29.10'' (''"As NOBLE tends to operate much more closely with non-augmented personnel than Blue, Red, et al ever did, NOBLE's CO decided that his team shouldn't have to worry about some Oscar Sierra light-switch they might run into in the field trying to start calling the shots or otherwise alter OP parameters mid-mission."'']</ref>

He was stationed on [[Reach]] during [[Fall of Reach|its fall]] and ordered NOBLE Team to investigate the comm blackout at the [[Visegrád Relay]].<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Noble Actual]]''</ref> Noble One would soon inform him that the Visegrád Relay was taken out by a Covenant advance team.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Winter Contingency]]''</ref> He next ordered the Spartans to defend [[SWORD Base]] from Covenant attack<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[ONI: Sword Base]]''</ref> and later take out Covenant scattered throughout the area [[Type-38 Anti-Aircraft Cannon|anti-air turrets]] to clear the way for the {{UNSCShip|Grafton}}'s attack on a [[Covenant spire]], designated [[Spire One]].<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Tip of the Spear]]''</ref>

After the ''Grafton'' was destroyed by a [[Long Night of Solace|Covenant supercarrier]], he approved the plan for Noble Six, along with [[Jorge-052]], to pilot a [[YSS-1000 Sabre]] for a high-risk mission dubbed [[Operation: UPPER CUT]], which was an attempt destroy the supercarrier. During the space battle, Holland had the {{UNSCShip|Savannah}} assist Noble Five and Noble Six by keeping the [[Ardent Prayer|corvette]] they were attempting to [[Boarding|board]] busy. After Jorge and Six boarded the corvette he ordered the ''Savannah'' to pull back. However, the Savannah was under heavy fire and had already sustained too much damage, and was subsequently destroyed.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace]]''</ref>

Later, Holland contacted NOBLE Team, which was now operating in [[New Alexandria (location)|New Alexandria]], on an [[COM|open channel]]. He ordered them to destroy [[Sword Base]], which was at this point under Covenant control.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[New Alexandria]]''</ref> He received an update on their situation from [[Carter-A259]] as the team approached Sword Base in [[Eposz]]. After arriving, however, NOBLE Team came under the command of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and their mission parameters were shifted; All [[Catherine Halsey]] had to say about the changes was that Colonel Holland would be briefed.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[The Package]]''</ref>
