"The strength of the pack is the wolf, the strength of the wolf is the pack.""Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me..."ODST for life
So I have always been a bit confused...to become an ODST are you selected to become one? Or do you volunteer? I thought after the first hand picked batch that it was a voluntary type thing, kinda like SWAT for police, but the intel section kinda makes it sound like ODSTs have always been selected and recruited from different branches of the UNSC military.I need this information for a fan-fic title I am currently working on.
I believe you are chosen if you show exceptional skill whilst in the marines.
It's an entirely voluntary unit.
Without me, it's just "Aweso".
I believe it's like the modern Paratroopers. It's voluntary, but the training regimen is far harsher than that of a normal soldier's meaning that they will be better.
Iam enjoying Halo Reach and revisiting some past Bungie games, iam a big fan of Bungie and their online community.

Thank you much. Does anyone have any reference links or anything? Ive looked at the Halopedia page for ODST's but is there anywhere else to look?
I'm sure that if you were an great marine for years, did something amazing like saved a spartan from death, you would get in the program.
