A brigade is UNSC organizational unit in the UNSC Army and UNSC Marine Corps.
Composition
In the UNICOM rank structure, a brigade is commanded by an O-6 Colonel.[1]
Brigades have yet to see significant mention or development in official Halo media. However, in modern military forces, a brigade consists of around 5,000 soldiers. Brigades are usually composed of three to six battalions, while three or more brigades are considered a division.
