Duke

In the annals of military history, few names resonate with the raw power and respect commanded by Duke. A seasoned warrior who rose through the ranks with a blend of grit and genius, he embodies the very spirit of a seasoned general, though his rank remains that of an enlisted man. Duke’s journey began in 1967 when he enlisted in the US Army, his relentless drive propelling him to the top of his class at Fort Benning’s Airborne School. His insatiable thirst for knowledge led him to the US Army Language School, where he mastered Southeast Asian dialects, setting the stage for his transition into the elite Green Berets in 1969. His valor knows no bounds; in the heat of battle in Vietnam, he executed a daring rescue, saving 34 POWs from a heavily-fortified enemy compound, earning him the Medal of Honor and two Bronze Stars. His reputation as a strategic mastermind and a fearless leader saw him rise to become a senior instructor in Special Forces schools, where he molded the next generation of warriors. Though offered a field commission, Duke remained true to his roots, his humility as striking as his courage. In 1983, he joined the Special Counter-Terrorist Group Delta as its acting first sergeant and was soon appointed as the team’s field commander—a role he embraced with the precision of a master tactician. Duke’s commands are followed without question, his presence alone enough to inspire those around him. In the chaos of combat, he is the calm eye of the storm, a living legend whose legacy is etched in the hearts of all who serve with him.
