Reference Tag/Link Fix?[]

I'm not doubting there's a Colonel Urban Holland, since I've seen reference to this guy elsewhere, but the link given in the reference just leads me to what appears to be an email between Mendez and Kurt Ambrose, not a 'Noble Team Performance Report'. There's no mention of Urban Holland in there anywhere- and I've quadruple-checked just to be sure. Once again, just saying I could use some help tracking down the proper link so the reference tag leads to the actual link being used as a reference, since that's what it's there for. I looked all over the Halo: Reach page, but I couldn't find that 'Noble Team Performance Report' that mentioned a 'Colonel Urban Holland', but it obviously exists, since I've seen it referenced two or three times by now.

Holland's Branch?[]

On the first page of the Halo: Reach game manual, you have the actual orders for Noble 6 being assigned to Noble from Col. Holland. In his signature block, Holland puts down:

  • Urban Holland
  • Colonel, USW
  • NOBLE, Commanding Officer

The question I have is what branch does "USW" mean? Is it UNICOM Special Warfare? Unconventional Special Warfare? UNSC Special Warfare (which is my best guess)? Does anyone have any ideas? We all know that Holland is Army and if he is assigned to a special warfare branch, then it would mean that the Army could possibly run SPECWARCOM. Bugkill 18:05, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

Unorthodox Special Warfare? :P

Yeah, I keep forgetting that at times. Anyway, I think that it means UNSC Special Warfare. Bugkill 18:06, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

So, really, what DOES happen to him after Reach?[]

So... Really, does he or does he not survive the Battle of Reach? Or do we not know? Can ANYONE answer this? -- MisterRandom2 00:10, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

We have no idea of what happened to him. Dr. Halsey mentioned him last, say Holland would be notified of the change in command over Noble Team, suggesting he is still alive. However, past that we do not know.XRoadToDawnX 02:49, October 15, 2010 (UTC)
I am most definitely alive. I can assure you I survived The Battle Of Reach. However, I have not been assigned a new command and am awaiting orders. --Col. Urban HollandDukevoice1 01:22, April 7, 2012 (UTC)
