UNSC Colonial Guard

The UNSC Defence Forces Colonial Guard is a militia force organized and under the subordinate command of the UNSC Army. The Colonial Guard serves as a federally-recognized paramilitary militia on UNSC Colonies, acting as both a reserve force for the UNSC Army, as well as a complementary service; Colonial Guard units are expected to perform military duties on their respective colonies, in place of or in complement to local Regular Army Units. UNSC Colonial Guard units are volunteer groups organized and supplied by the UNSC Army, and are trained by Regular Army Personnel of the respective colony's local garrison. Each Colonial Guard unit is also supplied appropriate weaponry, vehicles, and aircraft by the local garrison, and is considered a subordinate command under the colony's local Army Ground Forces Command.
