At the beginning of the level, when the MC and all the ODSTs get out of the dropship, Sgt. Johnson says, "Hit it Marines, the Corp aint payin' us by the hour!" there is a slight problem.

Sgt. Johnson isn't even there.

What the hell?

The ones with full armoring are ODSTs. The ones without are regular Marines.

The guys at the start of T&R have full armor. They're ODSTS.

ODST's are new to Halo 2 here are some ODST's and there is nothing that looks anything like this in Halo: CE!
Instead they all look like this and these are your ordinary everyday Marines!
Also if there were ODST's in Halo they would have gotten a mention in the manual seeing as they are totally different to Marines!

ok, thou shall share me wisdom with all of ye:

ODST wear the cool black armor durin orbital drop but change bac into 'regular brown marine' gear after they've landed. real regular marines are suppose to wear green gear. practically ALL the marines you fight with on halo are ODSTs

Actually ODST's are Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, which means, they drop from orbit into hell, thus, Helljumpers, now if your droping into hell, would you want to be ready to fight, or to change clothes?

ODST's Are new to Halo 2, now they were in all the books, but they were not at all in Halo: CE.

In the novel "The Flood", it says that the Master Chief does work with some of the ODST's. If I'm not mistaken the Chief goes in with some ODST's (on the T&R) and recieves back up at the gravity lift. The reinforcements were regular marines but not the original troops you start out with.
