Jonathan Miller

Sergeant Jonathan "Jono" Miller is a playable character in Battlefield 3. He is seen in the tank mission Thunder Run. He is a member of the 1st Marine Tank Battalion of the United States Marine Corps, callsign "Anvil". On October 31, 2014, he participates in US military operations against the People's Liberation and Resistance forces in Dasht-e Kavir Desert, Iran. It is revealed through comms chatter, the dinosaur that reads, "To Dad," and Solomon's monologue refers to the fact that Miller is a father of a young boy. His child's birthday is evidently in the near future, as can be heard when the loader tells Miller that he'll "be back in time for his birthday".



In Fear No Evil, after rescuing Sergeant Blackburn and his squad, his tank is severely damaged, and PLR soldiers rush the disabled vehicle and take him prisoner.

In his final moments, he was executed by Solomon following a short monologue by Faruk Al-Bashir, all of which was recorded and released on the internet.

Trivia

 * Along with Thomas Wyatt from Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Miller is the second playable character who was scripted to die in a Battlefield game.
 * In the mission Night Shift, Campo refers to him as Corporal Miller. This was likely an error in the audio recordings left over from an earlier point in development, i.e. the Thunder Run gameplay trailer, where Miller was a Corporal.
 * He is one of two characters to not make an actual appearance in a cutscene or gameplay and say something in the game.
