The Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (or ODSTs for short) are a special forces unit of the [[Marines]] who make orbital insertions through planetary atmospheres. The [[105th Orbital Drop Shock Trooper Division]] is the toughest of the ODST Divisions and are nicknamed "Helljumpers" for their tenacity. Delivered to their targets via [[Human Entry Vehicle]]s or if stealth is needed a parchute, these soldiers are always in the most danger of being killed on a mission. As the HEVs enter the atmosphere, they become unbearably hot, occasionally to the point of death. Thus, one must volunteer to be an ODST, making many people view them as crazy. They are the toughest soldiers the [[UNSC]] has to fight the [[Covenant]] with other than the [[Spartan|SPARTAN-IIs]].


ODSTs were aboard the ''[[Pillar of Autumn|UNSC Pillar or Autumn]]'', the ''[[UNSC Atlas]]'' as well as the ''[[UNSC In Amber Clad]]''. It is very possible that every vessel in the UNSC has a detatchment of ODSTs.

ODSTs were operating as early as 2525. In [[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], the Master Chief was forced to fight ODSTs on more than one occasion. Because of this, it seems that the ODST and Spartan units do not get along most of the time.
In [[Halo 2]], the ODSTs that accompany the [[Master Chief]] on the drop onto [[Delta Halo]] are clad in black armour with silver reflective visors instead of the regular Marine uniform.

In [[Halo: The Flood]], the group of ODSTs led by [[Major Antonio Silva]] were instrumental in ensuring that the survivors of the ''Pillar of Autumn'' were well protected, although none of them were ever seen in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]].

In [[Halo 2]], the ODSTs that accompany the [[Master Chief]] on the drop onto [[Delta Halo]] are clad in black [[Body Suit|armour]] with silver reflective visors instead of the regular Marine uniform. Soldiers from the 105th were on the orbital defense stations in orbit above [[Earth]] as on the first level of [[Halo 2]] four dead ODST's can be seen lying dead in the last "inside" room before the bomb room.

Summary

The Orbital Drop Shock Troopers or ODSTs are the Marines who make orbital insertions through planetary atmospheres. The 105th ODST Division is the toughest of the ODST Divisions and are nicknamed "Helljumpers" for their tenacity. Delivered to their targets via HEVs (Human Entry Vehicles), these soldiers are always in the most danger of being killed on a mission. They are the toughest soldiers the UNSC has to fight the Covenant with other than the SPARTAN-IIs.

In Halo 2, the ODSTs that accompany the Master Chief on the drop onto Delta Halo are clad in black armour with silver reflective visors instead of the regular Marine uniform.
