The [[Harvest Militia|Colonial Militia troops]] of the planet [[Harvest]] were among the first [[human]]s to make contact with the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]], following a [[Skirmish on Minor Transgression|secret operation]] in orbit above the planet. They were trained and commanded by [[Captain (Marine Corps)|Captain]] [[Ponder]] and [[Staff Sergeant]]s [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]] and [[Nolan Byrne]]. Despite their attempts to defend Harvest, the planet was ultimately [[Glassing|glassed]] and nearly half of the militia's seventy-two members were killed.<ref name="H:CH"/> | The [[Harvest Militia|Colonial Militia troops]] of the planet [[Harvest]] were among the first [[human]]s to make contact with the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]], following a [[Skirmish on Minor Transgression|secret operation]] in orbit above the planet.

Several members of [[Reach]]'s [[Reach Colonial Militia|militia]] took part in the [[Fall of Reach]]. On the night of [[2552#August|August 11, 2552]], members of this militia were found by [[Jun-A266]] and [[SPARTAN-B312]] while defending a pump station in [[Ütközet]]. After fending off several waves of Covenant troops, the surviving militia led the two SPARTANs down a dried riverbed to a [[Ütközet hydroelectric power plant|power plant]] that was occupied by the Covenant, who had placed a [[stealth pylon]] there. The militia helped the SPARTANs eliminate the Covenant troops around the pylon and defended 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 Covenant landing zone.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level, ''[[Nightfall]]''</ref> | Several members of [[Reach]]'s [[Reach Colonial Militia|militia]] took part in the [[Fall of Reach]].
