UNSC Army: Difference between revisions

It is known that the UNSC Army frequently patrols colony planets,<ref>''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx'' - Ackerson's remembrance</ref> but, they have never been named in any operations in [[Halo Universe|Halo canon]], apart from the [[Battle of Mare Erythraeum]]. Unlike the Marines, which actively take the offensive against the enemy, the UNSC Army is largely used in defensive operations, garrisoning UNSC-held territory <ref>http://halostory.bungie.org/oconnor_mclees_080508.html</ref>.

The only supposed UNSC Army operation could be the [[Battle of Mare Erythraeum]] where [[Colonel James Ackerson]] led an unknown number of Army infantry forces against the [[Jiralhanae|Brute]] Commander [[Lepidus]] on [[Mars]]. It is also highly likely that the Army fought against [[Covenant Loyalist|Covenant Loyalist forces]] in the [[Battle of Earth]].<ref>If Ackerson was leading it, then it could be an Army operation.</ref>
