In Halo, Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (ODSTs) are an elite special-forces group of the UNSCDF (United Nations Space Command Defense Force) Marine Corps, commanded by Naval Special Warfare. They are dropped into their mission areas by an HEV (Human Entry Vehicle) from low-orbit or "slipspace" drop. It's an all-volunteer outfit, and as mentioned in the book Halo: The Flood, it takes a "special kind of crazy" to join. The ODST often find themselves at odds with the rest of the UNSC Marine Corps and some view themselves as above the Marines. They're analogous to various types of special-forces personnel, such as Marine Force Recon and Navy SEALs.
