This '''militia''' was a branch of the [[Colonial Militia]] created to handle operations on the [[human]] colony world of [[Reach]].<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level, ''[[Nightfall]]''</ref>{{Verify_source}} <!--Removed due to ongoing consensus: "Due to the relatively strong military presence on the colony world by [[2552]], it can be assumed that the militia remained on the planet to police the outlying farmland regions."-->


This '''militia''' was local criminal{{Ref/Note|The group encountered in ''Halo: Reach'' have cases of UNSC military equipment, which is discussed in a manner suggesting the equipment is illegal, making it likely these forces were not a part of the UEG-sanctioned [[Colonial Militia]].}} militia based in the [[Ütközet]] region on the [[human]] colony world of [[Reach]].{{Ref/Level|Id=nightfall|HR|Nightfall}}
During the [[Fall of Reach]] on the night of [[2552#August|August 11, 2552]], a militia fireteam was encountered in the [[Viery Territory]] by [[Recon Team Bravo]] during an assessment of the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] invasion force's overall strength. Although the area had been evacuated long before the operation, the militia had remained behind to defend their homes as well as recover weapons that they had stolen from the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]. During the UNSC's first encounter with Reach's militia, the groups infantry were mistook as [[Insurrectionist]]s (which is still questionable due to their possession of UNSC property). During the battle to defend Reach, the only appearance of locals taking to arms was during a UNSC reconnaissance mission in the mountains of [[Visegrad]] in August 2552. Other than the presence in Visegrad, there are no other known occurrences linked to the Militia unless mistaken as affiliation to the Insurrection.
 
==History==
During the [[Fall of Reach]] on the night of [[2552#August|August 11, 2552]], a militia fireteam was encountered in the [[Viery Territory]] by [[Recon Team Bravo]] during [[Mission to Szurdok Ridge|an assessment]] of the [[Covenant]] invasion force's overall strength. Although the area had been evacuated long before the operation, the militia had remained behind to defend their homes as well as recover weapons that they had stolen and hidden from the [[United Nations Space Command]]. When members of this militia were found by [[Jun-A266]] and [[SPARTAN-B312]] defending a pump station in [[Ütközet]], the SPARTANs aided the militia with fending off several waves of Covenant troops.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=nightfall}}
 
The surviving militia led the two SPARTANs down a dried riverbed to a [[Ütközet hydroelectric power plant|power plant]] that was occupied by Covenant forces, who had placed a [[stealth pylon]] there. The militia and the SPARTANs worked together to eliminate the Covenant troops around the pylon and covered Jun while he placed a charge on one of the pylon's legs. After the charge was placed, they followed the SPARTANs deeper into enemy territory and helped them discover a nearby Covenant landing zone.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=nightfall}}
 
==Trivia==
*Unlike most story significant allies, the Reach militia are not invincible, and can die if they take too much damage or are abandoned early by the player.
*Prior to joining the [[Venezian militia|militia]] on [[Venezia]], [[Nairn]] served as a corporal in the Reach militia.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Mortal Dictata|Page=147}}
