Template:Infobox Military Unit The Colonial Militia is a branch of the UNSC Defense Force.[1] The Militia's job is to safeguard planets when UNSC Forces are not present. A colony's militia forces are trained by the UNSC under the Colonial Militia Training Program.

Role

Often trained and raised by noncommissioned officers in the UNSC, the Colonial Militia is comprised of citizens to provide defense, and emergency services, and to serve as a potential paramilitary force. Often, militia members join the UNSC as enlisted soldiers.

Operational History

A Colonial Militia Garrison on Harvest were the first Humans to make contact with the Covenant, defending the planet for as long as they could before it was glassed.

During late 2552 unorganized Colonial Militia units also fought during the First and Second Battle of Earth at Mombasa and Cleveland.[2]

Trivia

  • Colonial Militia units are actually run and organized by the UNSC Marine Corps. It is probable that the UNSC Army also takes part in militia training.
  • The local Colonial Militia may have fought on every world during the Human-Covenant War, supplementing UNSC Army and Marine Corps units during battle.
