"We can avert war between our nations. Just two of us.
No politicians, no money changing hands.
Just two soldiers speaking the truth."
This section contains spoilers for Battlefield 3.


Jackson Chaffin is an American Marine from Blackburn's squad, Misfit 1-3. Not much else is known about him, but David Montes describes him as "a tough son of a bitch".

Chaffin was hit by a PLR sniper during the mission, Operation Swordbreaker, however, Henry Blackburn managed to drag him out of the firefight.

He is kept stable while Misfit 1-3 pursues the PLR forces, including the sniper. He was later carried out of the area by a medical team headed by Doc Holiday, from which Blackburn and his squad provided covering fire from a rooftop. It is unknown what happened to him, but it is presumed he recovered from his injuries.

Trivia[]

  • Chaffin's leg and body models (but not arms) are the same models seen in first-person view as Miller and Blackburn, as well as when playing the US team in multiplayer.
  • If one goes the other way after using a plank as a bridge and jump from building to building, and go inside a garage, Chaffin will be visible, alive and well, holding an M4A1 w/ ACOG scope. Sometimes, however, he may not have any weapon at all but hold his hands in position as if he did.
  • In real life, there is a Corporal James Chaffin from the same battalion. He is featured in the HBO series Generation Kill.
