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.

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.
  • This is the only group of ODSTs you fight with another possible reference to 7
