*Devereaux wore a beret before being assigned to Kilo-Five, demonstrating that the UNSC Marine Corps - or possibly the ODSTs in particular - wear berets. This is unlike the real-life US Marines, the principal source of inspiration for the UNSC Marines, who are the only US military branch that does not authorize berets. | *Devereaux wore a beret before being assigned to Kilo-Five, demonstrating that the UNSC Marine Corps - or possibly the ODSTs in particular - wear berets. This is unlike the real-life US Marines, the principal source of inspiration for the UNSC Marines, who are the only US military branch that does not authorize berets. Considering the multinational nature of the UNSC and Karen Traviss's British nationality, it is possible that the beret is an homage to the Royal Marines, who do authorize berets, and the fact elite units are known to wear berets (paratroopers, Green Berets, Army Rangers). | ||
