Retribution Corps

“Súscipe Libertatis“
-Motto of the Retribution CorpsThe Retribution Corps are a deactivated unit of the UNSC Marine Corps formed just before the Human Civil War (more commonly known as the Insurrection) in 2492. It was the first and only unit stationed on the planet of Retribution, and was deactivated after the Second Battle of Old Oberon during the Insurrection due to a lack of funding and the inability to find a competent leader.
== History ==
=== Formation ===
The Retribution Corps were founded in early 2492 by General Thomas Ferguson in Fort McKinley to give the planet a stable military source. They would remain stationed in this fort until their deactivation
=== Pre-Insurrection Operations ===
The Retribution Corps were often deployed to small cases of violent protests before the Insurrection. They had also participated in Operation: Halberd.
=== Insurrection-Era ===
The Retribution Corps played a major role in the Insurrection-Era. Because of their participation on Retribution, they were able to maintain control of the planet. 
==== The Fall of New Oberon ====
The Retribution Corps were the first unit to be deployed to attack Insurrectionists during the Fall of New Oberon. Unfortunately, they were outnumbered by the Insurrectionists and General Ferguson was killed. They surrendered after this revelation.
==== The First Battle of Old Oberon ====
After Ferguson´s death, Major Kyle Aikers was placed in charge of the Retribution Corps. After learning of the Insurrectionists´ plans to destroy Old Oberon, they set up an ambush. Hiding in bushes and trenches, they waited for the Insurrectionists to arrive. When they did, they were able to pin them down with vehicle fire until they were able to push into the city and destroy several small buildings. For thirty years, they remained at the center of the city fighting. Due to the Retribution Corps´ superior firepower, the Insurrectionists were forced to surrender.
==== The Second Battle of Old Oberon ====
After Major Aikers retired, UNSC Major Konrad Patterson was placed in charge of the Retribution Corps. For five years, he assisted the UNSC fleet with the cruisers stationed on Retribution. With their assistance, all of the enemy ships were destroyed and Insurrectionist activity on Retribution ended.
== Deactivation ==
After failure to find another leader after Patterson resigned, the Retribution Corps was deactivated just before the Human-Covenant War.
