History

Main article: Battle for Zeta Halo

Following the loss of the organized UNSC resistance at the crashed UNSC Mortal Reverie, a ragtag group of hardened ODST veterans formed the Gravediggers as a guerilla unit. By March 3, 2560, the Gravediggers had built a reputation among UNSC survivors for being effective at taking out Banished supply runners and raiding parties.[1]
