Harland

"Faster! You wanna die in the mud marine?!"

- Harland to Priavte Fincher

Character Biography
Corporal Harland is a veteran Marine who assumed tactical command during the lopsided Battle of Sigma Octanus IV after his superior and commanding officers were wiped out by opposing Covenant forces. Harland and three members of his squad, Private Fincher, Private Cochran, and Private Walker encountered Covenant Hunters and after realizing that "Bravo" base and the surrounding area was destroyed by the Covenant, they narrowly won a retreating fight against two Banshees. After returning to the primary headquarters in the city Cote d'Azur, only to find that it was also destroyed with almost no survivors, Harland called for reinforcements, not expecting the SPARTANs.

Harland was then debriefed at Reach and at one point asked the Master Chief if he could join the SPARTANs, but couldn't get a straight answer from him.

Fate
After the debrief, Harland's fate is unknown since he had a grim look on his face shortly after, but it is presumed he fought the Covenant during the Battle of Reach.
