Battlefield: Bad Company
Sergeant Redford joined Bad Company at his own request so he could retire early, despite that the unit had a high mortality rate. It states in the games manual that he used to like the Army, but grew sick of it ever since he was sent to B-Company. At the beginning of the game, it was revealed that he only had 3 days left of service before he left. On his last day, after Haggard had 'single-handedly invaded a neutral country' to get mercenary gold, Redford threatens to court-martial and send Haggard to jail for the incident but ends up defending Haggard, saying that it was his plan to do it, causing him to serve a much longer service time in the US Army.
This resulted in him deciding to go AWOL in an attempt to steal the mercenary's gold. He, along with the squad, managed to successfully steal the gold. However, to their dismay, they found the US Army loading gold into their trucks. In a stroke of luck, a commanding officer sees Redford and his squad and asks them to take the truck full of 'scrap metal' which the squad worked out to be the gold that they previously discovered. The squad join the rear of the convoy, and then whilst no one is looking, they turn off onto a quiet road, where they excitedly begin to discuss how they will spend their loot.
