The '''256th Marine Regiment''' (also known as the '''256th Marines'''), was an infantry regiment in the UNSC Marine Corps. It was activated in the later years of the insurrection, partaking in the Eridanus Campaign. After the outbreak of the Human-Covenant War, the unit was reassigned to Harvest, fighting with distinction.

Notable members of the unit include [[Tyrone Hosmer]] ("Hannibal"), [[Jessie Cecena]] ("JC"), [[Randy Chapman]] ("Ray") and [[Jeremy Galvin]] ("Tug") - all members of Fireteam Alpha of Echo Company's 1st Platoon.
