In the field, Marines usually wear passively [[camouflage]]d uniforms with [[M52B Body Armor|body armour]]. Marine helmets are mounted with holographic text-displaying [[UNSC tactical eyepiece|eyepieces]] and [[Helmet recorder|recorders]]. As well as helmets, Marines on field operations in more humid locales sometimes choose to wear [[Wikipedia:Boonie hat|boonie covers]], or those in colder environments don visored and thicker helmets. Marine [[Non-commissioned officer|NCOs]] are easily recognized by the cover they wear complete with the UNSCDF insignia, although they oftentimes substitute this soft cover for a more practical protective helmet; post-war NCOs often wear a variant with a fully sealed helmet that is otherwise worn by scouts. Marines sometimes don small helmet communications microphones or black-phased sunglasses on their helmets, and others carry backpacks. Marines sometimes wear black gloves to protect their hands and improve their grip on their weapons. Some Marines sport orange visors which attach to the brim of their helmets. | In the field, Marines usually wear passively [[camouflage]]d uniforms with [[M52B Body Armor|body armour]].

A well armored Marine can resist at 7-8 [[Plasma Rifle|plasma rounds]] (it also depends by where the plasma hit) or 4-5 [[Covenant Carabine]] shots(or 2 headshots). | |||
Marines operating in cold environments wear environmentally-tailored armor, with insulated snow camouflage utilities and full body armor as well as insulated and visored helmets with something analogous to a balaclava.<ref>'''[[Halo Wars]]'''</ref> | Marines operating in cold environments wear environmentally-tailored armor, with insulated snow camouflage utilities and full body armor as well as insulated and visored helmets with something analogous to a balaclava.<ref>'''[[Halo Wars]]'''</ref> | ||
