 ==UNSC Marine Corps==
-The [[UNSC Marine Corps]] appears to mirror the organizational structure of the [[United States Marine Corps]] in most distinguishable ways, however the exact structure is still unclear. An incomplete chart showing the sourced known structure of the UNSC Marine Corps units can be seen below. Current [[Halo]] canon focuses heavily on small unit interactions, with units at any strength higher than a Battalion being only occasionally mentioned and never elaborated upon. This has caused a lack of information regarding the specifics of larger UNSC Marine commands.
+The large-unit structure of the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] appears to mirror the organizational structure of the [[United States Marine Corps]] in most distinguishable ways, however the small-unit structure is more unique and in some ways still unclear. A nearly complete chart showing the sourced known structure of the UNSC Marine Corps units can be seen below. Current [[Halo]] canon focuses heavily on small unit interactions, with units at any strength higher than a Battalion being only occasionally mentioned and never elaborated upon. This has caused a lack of information regarding the specifics of larger UNSC Marine commands.  Small units structure is often referenced indirectly.  The below chart shows unit strength and specifics that can be applied to all (as of yet ) known units.
