'''Colonel'''<ref>''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'', page 58; "... pinned with the eagle insigna of a colonel".</ref> is a field-grade [[commissioned officer]] rank of the [[UNSC Marine Corps]], [[UNSC Army]], and [[UNSC Air Force]], equal in rank to [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] in the [[UNSC Navy]]. Their rank insignia appears to be the same as their modern U.S. counterparts, one silver eagle.
 
Given that other ranks command the same unit groups as their modern day U.S. counterparts do, it is highly probable that a UNSC Colonel commands a [[regiment]] or a brigade. This has yet to be observed in the Halo universe. A Colonel may also serve as a staff officer for higher unit groupings, such as divisions.
