"And we are now under attack across the Viery territory, including Orbital Defenses. As per the Winter Contingency, we are countering on every front."

During the Fall of Reach, the order of battle for operations in the Viery Territory on Reach was comprised of many different units from the UNSC Army and Marine Corps, with air support provided by warships and starfighters of the Navy. [1] Over the course of the battle, three Army brigades and numerous Marine rifle and shock infantry battalions would defend and go on the offensive against the Covenant Army in Viery. Elements of this joint force participated in the Battle at Szurdok Ridge, where they attempted to prevent the Covenant from gaining a foothold on Reach.[1]

Notes

  1. ^ It's currently unknown if the 12th Marine Regiment that fought during the Battle of Viery is a Field Artillery unit like it's predecessor that served in China and during the Second World War, the Vietnam War, the Persian Gulf War, and during the War in Afghanistan. Although, as it contains four battalions (1/12, 3/12, 4/12, and 5/12) unlike it's 21st century equivalent (1/12 and 3/12), it could be suggested that the 12th Marines in 2552 have transitioned to an infantry regiment.
