Men and women from this battalion were also some of the first humans to travel outside the Milky Way Galaxy, during the Battle of Installation During the last battle of the Ark campaign - the last battle of the war - ODSTs were again airlifted into combat.

The ODSTs perform highly specialized, small scale, high-risk operations including: Deep Ground Surveillance or Long Range Reconnaissance : Patrols in small groups, in uniform, usually far behind the enemy lines.
While DGS units may direct air or artillery strikes against enemy positions, they strive to be unobserved, and have only self-defense, not DA, capability. Direct Action : Short-duration strikes and other small-scale offensive actions conducted as a special operation in hostile, denied, or politically sensitive environments and which employ specialized military capabilities to seize, destroy, capture, exploit, recover, or damage designated targets.
Each ODST combat team specializes in a particular mission set, though they are expected to be flexible enough to adapt to any given situation. ODSTs are known for their unusual methods of insertion, dropping from orbit onto terrestrial environments. The ODST perform highly specialized, small-scale, high-risk operations including the following: [2] [3]. The idea of inserting highly trained troops behind enemy lines from high altitudes has its roots in the paratroopers of 20th and 21st century fame, who dropped frequently behind enemy lines to capture strategically important targets in anticipation for a larger advance by more conventional and numerous military forces.
Although they were only marginally successful, they proved the concept of paratroops as useful and effective in large-scale warfare. The United Nations created the first iterations of the ODST deployment concept in ; [1] these early incarnations were occasionally referred to as Drop Jet Platoons.
The conclusion of the Interplanetary War in , along with the signing of the Callisto Treaty and the subsequent years that followed, the ODST saw little action as more political, and more important issues such as overpopulation and famine and a massive military with no purpose gripped the postwar nations of Earth. The first major combat re-emergence of the ODSTs occurred in during the beginnings of the civil conflict between the Unified Earth Government and the Insurrectionists.
For the years leading up to , the ODST conducted high-risk operations against the Insurrectionists, to either stop the enemy before they could carry out attacks against supporters, and officials of the Unified Earth Government or to cut off major suppliers to the Insurrectionists. During the deployment, several members of the unit were killed by insurgent forces.
On November 1, , the UNSC moved to full alert status after the devastating first contact with the Covenant at Harvest ; this marked a change in objectives for the ODST, who up until that point had been fighting the Insurrectionists.
ODSTs were deployed directly onto the campus to reinforce the already-present Marine garrison. But by the time Spartan-IIs John , Kelly , and Frederic arrived, the deployed ODSTs, along with the entire academy's staff, students save for four survivors , and garrison were slaughtered. Having successfully kept Covenant forces from occupying the city, the Corps began launching multiple assaults on the Covenant's bases of operations to reclaim the planet. Following the enactment of the Cole Protocol in , ODST combat teams were tasked with boarding commercial and private vessels and purging their navigation databases.
During the initial invasion of Reach, a large contingent of ODSTs participated in the Battle of Viery , assisting the Army in repelling the Covenant forces from the planet. Throughout the course of the battle, the UNSC formed joint-forces to combat against the overwhelming Covenant forces. As the planet fell to the Covenant onslaught, the vessel made a blind slipspace jump away from the Epsilon Eridani system, discovering the long-abandoned Installation Following the disastrous loss of Reach and their massive casualties during the Battle of Installation 04 - where all but one of the troopers deployed were killed in action, [35] either on the ring itself or aboard the Flood -infested Covenant cruiser Truth and Reconciliation when it was destroyed by First Lieutenant Melissa McKay to contain the outbreak [36] - the ODST participated in the most significant battle of the entire war: the Battle for Earth.
Only a single squad managed to safely land in the city to carry out the retrieval of the Superintendent 's data. Most of these troopers would perish during the initial firefights against the Covenant, and only a few would escape back to Earth with Commander Miranda Keyes to lead a resistance against the Covenant occupation forces. Overall, the defense of Earth was one of the largest campaigns the ODST fought in during the entire war. The fighting spread across the globe and in space as newly-arrived Covenant fleets of warships scattered the Orbital Defense Grid.
Rymann and S. Hartley were tasked with calculating the crash site of John on Earth, while a Marine battalion was tasked with defending a narrow corridor between Covenant and UNSC forces in Pakistan. Kat was the smart, computer expert — the brains of the group. She died from a lack of awareness and a shot to the head. He fought as a part of Noble Team during the Fall of Reach in Kat had a roughly two-inch gash on the left side of her head. The cause of death was blunt force trauma. Mike Mehlhoff: The injury that she suffered was enough to actually fracture the skull..
