Extra Atmospheric Boarding Troops

The Extra Atmospheric Boarding Troops, also known as the EABTs, are a special forces group of the UNSC navy. They are specialy trained for zero-g combat in vacuum, and are experts in the use of the T-Pack and other propulsion devices. They are often used for boarding action, and do not need troop transports to carry them from place to place. They are the best of the best of the UNSC forces, and have one of the toughest jobs for any group of soldiers. They use the EAC Armor, which has small microthrusters to steady aim during fighting. The best known platoon of soldiers is the 514th EABT Division, who are often moved from one assignment to another. Their last known assignment was to the UNSC Hammerfist, which took them upon itself. The EABTs are not often used, and not often deployed, as they extreme danger to the men of it's legions negated most possible help that could be gained from them. However, they proved their effectiveness on the few times they were deployed. They used the specially made MA5B/VC Assault Rifle, which was a version made for combat in vacuum that had mircothrusters to steady aim and had extremelly low recoil, as well as the BR55-M45 Battle Rifle, which was favored for combat once inside covenant ships, which of course, had artificial gravity.
