I want to take a 10-man tac squad, with flamer, missile launcher and drop pod. I want to drop 5 men with flamer in the pod, and start the 5 with missile launcher on the board. Can I do this?

If I was allowed to take a pod with 5 men I would, but the codex states only a 10 man squad can have a pod. It also states a 10-man squad breaks into combat squads on deployment, which is what confuses me.

Page 51 Space Marine Codex: The exception to this is a unit that arrives by Drop Pod. The player can choose to split such a unit into combat squads when it disembarks from the drop pod
