Template:Ratings Template:New Content The Bullfrogs was a nickname given to a squad of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers specializing in the use of jetpacks. During the Fall of Reach, they were stationed at New Alexandria, and helped SPARTAN-B312 capture an executive landing pad for use in the evacuation.[1]
Note
Although the Bullfrogs are ODSTs, at least one of the squad members holds an Army rank of Specialist (All other ranks amongst the squad could be Marine or Army Ranks.) ODST forces recruit from all branches of service within the UNSCDF, and the use of the Army ranking system may indicate that these troopers came from the UNSC Army branch and maintained their ranks while joining the ODST's or that this particular ODST unit is under UNSC Army command which would point to the UNSC Army having ODST units much like the Marine Corps.
This also could just be an oversight on Bungie's part or perhaps in the year 2552, the UNSC Marine Corps has a "Specialist" rank. In addition, the ranks and names of the friendly troops in the game are seemingly randomized, which may lead to Army ranks being assigned to Marines.
