His rank may have been put reduced when he switched from being a normal marine to an ODST.
As long as you stay within the same branch of service your rank will not change. ODST are a cross between the Army's elite jumpers and the Marine Corps Force Recon. However, in the case of the world Bungie created, ODST are 100% Marines.

In modern day when they join the Spec Ops (AKA SAS Spetznaz) theyre rank get's busted down to 0.
I can't confirm this.
I will say, again, that Marines who transfer from regular Marines to Recon do not lose rank. Same can be said for those Navy personnel who transfer from the regular Navy to Navy Seals as well as those who transfer from regular Army to Army Delta Force.
