The Sedran Colonial Guard is the primary military force of the remote human Outer Colony of Sedra. They are led by Colonel Randall Aiken. Many soldiers in the Sedran Colonial Guard are well-motivated and dedicated to the defense of their homeworld from both internal and external threats. They are able to maintain a vague semblance of order in the planet's dispersed population centers.[1] Many individuals serving in the Colonial Guard are also noted as being resentful and mistrustful of the UNSC and the Unified Earth Government.[2]
History
On February 7, 2556, a Sangheili Zealot set off a new bioweapon that targeted humans in Sedra City, resulting in the strange infection of numerous civilians, and some deaths. The Colonial Guard was forced to ally themselves with an Office of Naval Intelligence unit to stop the terrorists from obtaining more of the element used to make the bioweapon. It was discovered that the element originated from a fragment of the destroyed Installation 04 that had exited slipspace in orbit over a red giant star in a nearby system. A team consisting of Sedran Guard and ONI personnel travelled to the fragment to capture the smugglers who mined the element for interrogation and then destroy the deposits with a HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon.[3]

After the Human-Covenant War, Sedra's economic stability and the Sedran colonial government's close relationship with the UNSC in regards to military hardware acquisition allowed it to supply the Sedran Colonial Guard with relatively modern military hardware.[4] However, much of this hardware is still inferior to the technology and equipment used by the UNSC Defense Force.[1] In many cases, the Colonial Guard forced to rely on outdated weapons and vehicles, such as the M40 pistol[5] and the D81-LRT Condor transport.[2][6] However, some of their equipment, including the BR85HB battle rifle, is up to the standard of the post-war UNSC.[3]
