"Broadly speaking, sappers are equally at home building things as they are blowing them up."

Combat engineers, also referred to as sappers[1] are specialized UNSC servicemen that perform construction and demolition tasks during combat.

Role

Combat engineers are personnel who are tasked with construction of allied fortifications and demolition of enemy emplacements.[2]

UNSC combat engineers may be structured within the UNSC Marine Corps of Engineers.
