Corporal Harland is a veteran of the UNSC Marine Corps during 2552. He assumed tactical command during the lopsided Battle of Sigma Octanus IV after his superior and commanding officers were wiped out by opposing Covenant forces.
Biography[edit]
Battle of Sigma Octanus IV[edit]
Harland and three members of his squad, Privates Fincher, Cochran, and Walker encountered Covenant Hunters and retreated to Alpha Headquarters after realizing that Firebase Bravo and the surrounding area had been destroyed by the Covenant. While retreating, they were involved in a skirmish against some Grunts. They killed the Grunts, but Cochran was severely wounded by Needler rounds.[1]
They narrowly won a retreating fight against two Banshees, where Harland attempted to destroy the Covenant fighters with the chain gun on the Warthog. He was unable to do so and the squad was saved by Cochran, who managed to shoot down both Banshees despite his injuries. After returning to the primary headquarters near the coastal city Cote d'Azur, only to find that it was also destroyed with almost no survivors, Harland called for reinforcements, not expecting the SPARTANs.
Harland was then debriefed at Reach and at one point asked the Master Chief if he could join the SPARTANs, but couldn't get a straight answer from him. After the debrief, Harland's fate is unknown since he had a grim look on his face shortly after.[2][3]
