| The '''7th ODST Battalion''' is a [[UNSC Marine Corps]] [[ODST]] unit. <ref>[[Art of Halo]], page 159</ref>
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Background==
| |
| Members of this battalion were stationed aboard the ''[[UNSC In Amber Clad]]'' during numerous battles including the [[The First Battle of Earth]], [[Battle of Installation 05]], and the [[Second Battle of Earth]].
| |
|
| |
| During the [[Battle of Installation 05]], First Platoon of the group stationed on the ''In Amber Clad'' was sent along with the Master Chief to the surface to clear a landing zone. Unfortunately, they landed right in the middle of a [[Covenant]] fortified complex, and within seconds all but three of the Platoon were dead. The remaining ODSTs helped the Chief as he traveled towards the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s [[Assault Carrier]]. Eventually, the three battle-weary ODSTs were evacuated by a Pelican and the rest of the way was aided by two standard marines.
| |
|
| |
| ==Trivia==
| |
| *The 7th was first mentioned in the ''[[Art of Halo]]'' book, released alongside ''[[Halo 2]]''.
| |
| *The battalion number comes from a patch that was designed for [[Halo 2]] and intended to be used on crew members of the ''In Amber Clad''. The patch was shown along with the In Amber Clad patch in the book [[The Art of Halo]]. It is not clear whether or not this patch was ever actually seen on the shoulders of any characters, as the In Amber Clad logo was.
