UNSC Marine Expeditionary Reconnaissance was a special operations capability developed by the Marine Special Operations Command and the Office of Naval Intelligence. Formulated by Beah Schore and Kawika Son, it was initiated in 2560 and certified as Special Operations Capable in 2570. Known more colloquially as the "Myrmidons", in homage to the preceding SPARTANs, Marine Expeditionary Reconnaissance forces provided deep reconnaissance, direct action, and counterterrorism capabilities to the Marine Corps at the Echelon Above Fleet Marine Force level.

abstract
| - UNSC Marine Expeditionary Reconnaissance was a special operations capability developed by the Marine Special Operations Command and the Office of Naval Intelligence. Formulated by Beah Schore and Kawika Son, it was initiated in 2560 and certified as Special Operations Capable in 2570. Known more colloquially as the "Myrmidons", in homage to the preceding SPARTANs, Marine Expeditionary Reconnaissance forces provided deep reconnaissance, direct action, and counterterrorism capabilities to the Marine Corps at the Echelon Above Fleet Marine Force level. Generally acknowledged as the futuristic successors of the highly-successful SPARTAN-IIs, the SPARTAN-IIIs (the UNSC Naval Special Commando Unit), and the High Priority Assassination Program, the Myrmidons were enhanced by bioinformatically-guided eugenics, highly advanced chemical augmentations, embryonic augmentations, and next-generation weaponry. Heavy usage of a modern understanding of bioinformatics and human genetics, chemical biology, and developmental biology imbued the Myrmidons with the cutting edge of human fitness, with substantially enhanced physical and mental capabilities that exceeded those of their predecessors. In this manner, the UNSC Special Operations Command sought to develop futuristic Special Forces that would enable humanity's survival in an evolving, demanding, and ever more hostile galaxy.
