I've already commented on some of the specifics on the talk pages for [[Talk: Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]] and UN Navy ''(now deleted)'', but this demands further attention. Specifically, I'd like to address the question of when the UNSC was formed, since that's where all the problems stem from. We used to have articles for hypothetical organizations like "United Nations Navy" and "United Nations Marine Corps, based on the assumption that the UNSC didn't exist prior to the UN's buildup campaign in 2164. However, let's examine the part that's often cited as proof that the UNSC was formed in 2164:

{{Article quote|UN-sponsored military forces begin a pattern of massive buildups, culminating in the first real interplanetary war. After the successful Marine deployment on Mars, recruitment drives and propaganda tactics strongly bolster UNSC (UN Space Command) forces. UN forces defeat Koslovic (supporters of rabid Communist hard-liner Vladimir Koslov) and Frieden (a resurgence of fascism) forces on Earth, then begin a systematic and dedicated drive to crush their remnants on the various planets they hold throughout the system. At the conclusion, Frieden and Koslovic forces are defeated, in the face of a massive, unified and very powerful UN military.}}

Now, you could say "massive buildups" and "strongly bolstering" indicate that this is when the UNSC was formed. However, I think the wording is too vague for that. If the writer wanted to specifically indicate this marks the formation of the UNSC, I think it would've been stated more clearly.
