United Nations Space Command (Grizzlei)

The United Nations Space Command (UNSC; also known as the Colonial Forces) is the unified armed service of the United Colonies of Earth. It consists of a uniformed military and a non-combatant civilian component. With its mandate as a military force, the UNSC is to maintain interstellar defenses of Earth's colonial possessions from domestic and foreign aggressors. Galactic colonization, diplomacy, and exploration efforts and scientific practices and endeavors are entrusted to a well-trained organization of military and civilian personnel.
The UNSC is a civilian-controlled agency headed by the President of the Colonies as Commander-in-Chief. Day-to-day policies are overseen by the Ministry of Defense, a federal department headed by the Secretary of Defense, a civilian member of the President's executive cabinet. Coordinating military operations with the Ministry for Colonial Affairs and Ministry for Foreign Affairs, or any ministry pertaining to a particular circumstance, is the Executive Security Council led by the Colonial Security Advisor. Military leadership is vested in the eleven-member Colonial Forces Council; included is the Chairman, Vice Chairman, the chiefs of the five service branches, and seven representatives from the primary commands who advise the various levels of government oversight.
