I got a Character for ya. He is a Marine but he belongs to a somewhat fictional unit of the USMC. The unit is a special forces detachment of the USMC called the United States Marine Raiders. First appearing in World War II, they are reintroduced after the end of the Iraq War in 2010 as an answer to growing Insurgency Warfare. They can conduct Special Operations behind Enemy Lines like the U.S Navy SEALS or Green Berets, act as the Vanguard for a U.S Attack Force like Regular Airborne Troops and fight alongside regular GIs in major large scale operation. They are divided into 3 Divisions. My character belongs to the 2nd Marine Raiders Division 36th Regiment. His name is Captain Scott Miller and he is well known around the USMC as a highly skilled soldier, a very good leader, a very smart tactician, and a man with great respect and admiration for his troops. He is greatly admired among the ranks. He is armed with an M416 with ACOG Scope as well as a Nickel Plated Colt Double Action Revolver. He is a veteran of the Iraq War and is descended from a long line of Marines. His Father served as a Marine Sergeant during the Vietnam War and a Colonel during Operation Desert Storm. His Grandfather served as an elite Marine Commando in the Pacific during World War II and took place in several major battles such as the Battle of Guadacanal, the Battle of Tarawa, the Battle of Saipan, the Battle of Guam, the Battle of Iwo Jima and the Battle of Okinawa. He also served for 2 years in Korea before being wounded during a Chinese Offensive and being shipped home. His Great Grandfather fought during World War I when the U.S entered the War and was killed during the Meusse Argonne Offensive by a German Machine Gun. His Great Great Grandfather was killed at Gettysburg during the Civil War and his earliest Marine Ancestor died during the Battle of Bunker Hill in the American Revolution. So Miller is basically a Patriot and a proud Marine.
