Template:Infobox Military Unit

The Venezian militia is a militia force on the lawless human colony planet of Venezia. The militia's operations were controlled by the Militia Council.[1] The Venezian militia's headquarters are located in New Tyne. Stavros's bar was a common meeting spot for militia members.[2] The militia employs many of Venezia's citizens, however, most lack experience and are aging human rebels.[3] The usual militia attire was mismatched camo pants, tactical vests, and a plain t-shirt.[4]

As of April 2553, the militia had gained control of several Calypso-class exfiltration craft, which they kept at the New Tyne Airfield.[5] The militia had acquired several human and Covenant aircraft including AC-220 Vultures, AV-14 Hornets, B-65 Shortswords, D82-EST Darters, and Type-52 Phantoms.[6]

In 2553, Staffan Sentzke intended to use the Pious Inquisitor to find out about his daughter's disappearance by threatening Earth with the ship. Then, he would hand the ship over to the militia.[7] Staff Sergeant Malcolm Geffen and Corporal Vasily Beloi, part of the highly covert Kilo-Five ONI intelligence unit, infiltrated the Venezian militia. Using a tracer planted by Vaz, Kilo-Five attempted to seize control of the ship using Venezia's slipspace communicator. However, their hack was foiled by the ship's Huragok, Sometimes Sinks, who alerted Sentzke of the attempted intrusion.[8] The two were taken to the Stuttgart armory to be interrogated.[9]
