==Operational history==
===Battle of Jericho VII===
The 105th Drop Jet Platoon saw action against the [[Covenant]] [[Covenant military|military]] ground forces during the [[Battle of Jericho VII]] in [[2535|February 2535]] where it was overrun and obliterated by a force of around a thousand [[Unggoy]]. The unit's annihilation would later be avenged when the offending Unggoy were eliminated by [[SPARTAN-II]]s, led by [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] [[John-117]], in the continued skirmishes of [[Jericho VII]].{{Ref/Reuse|HTFORP}}

== Operational History ==
The 105th Drop Jet Platoon saw action against the theocratic and zealous religious [[Covenant]] [[Covenant Army|Army]] during the [[Battle of Jericho VII]] in [[2535|February 2535]] where it was overrun and obliterated by a force of a thousand [[Unggoy]] soldiers. With the typical ODST bravado, the 105th likely took many of their Unggoy attackers with them. It is unknown if any Human survived in the battle between the [[Unggoy]].
 
The unit was later avenged when the offending [[Grunts]] were eliminated by [[SPARTAN-II]]s in the continuing battles of[[ Jericho VII]].
 
 
== Other ==
 
*The 105th Platoon should not be confused with the [[105th Orbital Drop Shock Trooper Division]], although both may have served similar roles.
 
 
 
== Trivia ==
*At first glances, people thought that they were slaughtered by manageable numbers of [[Grunts]], leading some players and fans to think that they were implied to be a poor example of a platoon.
