The Breakdown:

The Odan-Urr United Space Command or O.U.S.C. is the combined military force of Clan Odan-Urr and its associates, covering naval and ground forces, used to defend their home system and initiate policing actions. Originating in the wake of the Battle of Florrum, where the Kotahitanga-Unity Defense Force, Sentinel Network, and recruits from all corners of Brotherhood space who wished to join the fight against an oppressive Iron Throne formed to create the Odanite Expeditionary Force or O.E.F. Initially intended to serve a defensive role, it served as the Odanite military arm while the Sentinel Network acted as its main intelligence service. In the waning days of 41 ABY, under the guidance of a newly appointed Councilor of War, a series of new edicts were handed down through the ranks following a Fleet Review. These edicts attempted to solidify the core formation of the O.U.S.C., empower the Expeditionary Forces, and finalize the restructuring that had begun in 40 AB.

Assets not immediately assigned to The Jedi Praxeum, from independent sources, or who no longer had a home to return to and wanted to continue the fight against the darkness were quick to join the separated O.E.F. and the restructured O.U.S.C. Army and Marine Corps.

The O.U.S.C. Marine Corps. is a dedicated military force specializing in expeditionary and exoatmospheric operations and often serves as Odan-Urr's first military unit on the ground, excluding SeNet and Guardian forces protecting Key Figures. Deploying from low orbit in transitional shuttles, The Marines bring the fight directly to enemy lines in rapid response without the necessity of convening a full War Council.

The Competition:

The O.U.S.C. Marines specialize in quick insertion to adverse territory and adjusting to the peculiar of combat on the fly. Disadvantages in terrain, manpower, or environment are overcome through a mixture of sheer tenacity and cooperative effort. Unlike the 1st and 3rd Regiments, the 4th Regiment is largely untested on foreign soil, with a mixed heritage of the new generation of recruits and battle-tested Marines ready to show the newer generation what a fight really is.
