Talk:New Hera Militia

Few things.

1. The UEG maintains a civilian police force. While there may be military supplements to it, such as Gendarmes and the like, the brunt of law enforcement is performed by civilian police officers.

2. For an entire colony, a police force or militia of several dozen or hundred is incredibly small. Keep in mind that a colony is an entire planet, not just a single town, city, or province.

3. Militia forces are overseen by the UNSC Army, not the UNSC Marine Corps, as planetary garrison is the Army's jurisdiction. While Marines may be called to participate in the training of militiamen, they remain under the operational command of the Army, and thus are Soldiers.

4. Non-Commissioned Officers, such as all manners of Sergeants, are not in command of large formations: above squad-level, NCOs serve as advisors to Commissioned Officers, who are tasked with the command.
