Company: Difference between revisions
Combat Teams have only ever been seen in Halo: Outcasts, where they are clearly a squad equivalent. Every other mention of ODST units, including Halo: Outcasts, has them using platoons and squads like traditional marines (with each ODST battalion sans Silva's understrength battalion, having around 800 men, the same number given to standard marine corps units). As a result, I removed the blurb on ODST Company organization, as it is incorrect when compared to every other source.

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.
