What Army Will You Serve Beneath? : US(American)
Nationality: American
Character History:
Born to a well off family in the eaves of the Great Depression, he never knew that his family was instantly poor when the stock market crashed. The earliest things he remembers are government agents helping out with the family in the town of Grover's Town, Vermont(not real town). Thanks to the New Deal bills, by the time the first draft lottery was held, his family was on their way to having their pre-depression status again. As luck would have it, his number was the first to be called by President Roosevelt. Going off to the army, he tried his best to get through basic training. One day, he saw some trainee paratroopers jump out of an airplane. Then, he knew what he wanted to be in the army.Writing Sample:
John had no idea how he got there. He jumped out of the plane, hit the ground perfectly, and slipped on some ice. The next thing he remembers, he's looking at his map, and finding the nearest American outpost. He starts walking, and runs into a forest. He cuts through the forest, and starts getting that feeling that he's being followed. He gets low, and stays silent, weaving back and forth through the trees to try to lose his assumed pursuer, all the while not trying to wet his pants. After about 5 minutes of zig-zagging, he hears a burst of MG-42 fire. He gets really low, and sees that he is close to the front line and that a squad of American infantrymen are trying to capture a machine gun tower. He is about to help them when he gets hit in the helmet by a 9mm round. Luckily the M1 helmet can repel bigger than that.He turns around with his loaded M1 Garand, and sees that it's a scared young American private. "Hello," says John, right before the private's brains get splattered on the tree behind him. John turns around and sees that the machine gunners have killed the squadron and have spotted him. He gets low and hits the 2 men in the tower. He goes to the tower and lowers the Nazi flag,and yells out, "I'm American! I've gotten the tower!" John thinks that he's made a good thing out of a big mistake and is glad to be back with his mates as he finds out that his platoon of the 101st Airborne were the ones trying to take over the tower.Approved/Denied?: Neither Yet
