Undo revision 1608941 by 76.14.10.237 (talk) the source is still valid
(Removed the sentences on the ODST Companys, as we have only every seen "combat teams" as a background dialogue, and in Halo: Outcasts, where they are a squad sized unit. Every other mention of ODST organization, INCLUDING Halo: Outcasts, has their battalion numbers as being the same as a comparable UNSCMC battalion, structured using platoons and companies. As a result, combat teams have been clearly retconned out.) Tag: Reverted |

Generally, an infantry company would be composed of three infantry [[platoon]]s and one heavy weapons platoon. Though, these numbers are flexible depending on the unit type and mission. "T" companies, for example, eschew this model and mix their heavy weapons personnel into each platoon so all the platoons have one heavy weapon squad.{{Ref/Reuse|ENC54}} | Generally, an infantry company would be composed of three infantry [[platoon]]s and one heavy weapons platoon.
