This is to be completed later. Both characters will get played out- I really wanted a Harrier in, so I put one in, if you're cool.
Name: Grigori "Grieg" Harwony
Rank: Junior Sergeant
Role: Squad Leader
Unit: 1st Platoon, 1st Company, 6th Motorized Regiment, Chernarussian Defense Forces
Callsign: Bayonet One-Two-Actual (Bravo Squad), 1 Coy
Age: 33
Appearance:
Grigori has an almost Russian appearance, with shaved short ginger hair, being around 6"1 and moderately well built. His face is pale, and freckled, though Grigori has and will happily knock the teeth out of anyone smart enough to try and go down the easiest avenue of criticism of him. He has a well developed beard (much to the dismay of some officers), and blue eyes, with a few cuts and bruises down his hands and wrists. He can usually be seen wearing CDF fatigues, with a pair of simple leather combat gloves, and a netted M68 combat helmet, and some green and grey combat facepaint.
Languages:
Chernarussian, Russian, Limited English
Background:
Grigori was born in Novi Grad, Chernarus. He isn't a local to South Zagoria, and was born before the dissolution of the Soviet Union, of which Chernarus fragmented away from the Russian Federation. Grigori's father was a soldier in the former Red Army, but came home to alcoholism, with his parents divorcing when Grigori was only eight. Grigori finished school at 18, and went to work locally in the local Steelworks, seeing little other opportunity for himself, but a group of friends that he had told him to move on from the dead-end work that he had- and seek service elsewhere, in the Chernarussian Defense Forces, against the Chedaki insergency that threatened the country. His mother urged him to go- the steelworks were no place for her son, and even though Griegori didn't initially like the idea, based on his father's service, he still went ahead.
He enlisted when he was 24, a rather late age, but was able to find he was good at what he did. He became a Corporal three years ago, and was given command of a squad-sized element within Bayonet, which was recently deployed to South Zagoria, to fight the Chedaki insergency. Grigori has seen the mess they have made, and whilst not the most skilled or technical of soldiers, he hates their guts enough to direct him and his men well into harm's way without doing anything silly, and get the job done. He tends to be by the book, though on occasion, Grigori may need an explaining twice to get the point home. The recent death of 1-2 Actual has forced him to become the Squad Leader of this section,

Name: Shane Hunter
Rank: Flight Lieutenant
Role: Harrier Pilot (USMC)
Unit: VMA-214, "Black Sheep" (Fixed-Wing Attack Squadron), United States Marine Corps
Callsign: Yankee Two-One
Age: 25
Appearance:
Shane is about 6"0, with shaved short brown hair, being fairly skinny, but physically capable enough to get through the Corps' demanding physical training. He has green eyes, and a completely clean shaven face, opting not to grow a beard. He has a small scar on the right hand side of his cheek, and a tattoo of a Falcon on his right shoulder, being something that is usually covered by a shirt or his pilot's suit. On the carrier, Shane can be usually seen wearing a green thermal shirt, and a pair of combat trousers, with his pilot's suit being the Corps regular green.
Languages: English
Background:
Born in Astoria, Oregon, Shane grew up looking out on the sea, and often fooling about in his youth. His father worked as a police officer, whilst his mother was a local teacher, and were both often absent from Shane's youth, as a result of their jobs. Shane was a rascal for much of his young life, pissing both of his parents off indeed. This said, he was smart, and always seemed to be a step ahead of many of the other kids at school, taking a particular interest with Maths and Physics. He planned on joining the Marine Corps when he turned 18, and he did precisely that, joining their Aviation wing, to earn his wings- with his previous experience over the past few years prior in gliders and parasailing giving him a natural desire to fly something a little more potent. It was the only time he really felt he had made his parents proud, and it was something he found he picked up remarkably quick.
Over the course of the next few years, he served in two tours of duty in Afghanistan, with the Black Sheep, flying AV-8B Harrier II aircraft on attack missions, proving to be a valuable asset to the Corps. His service was not exemplary, but was definitely noted. On a seemingly routine deployment on the Khe Sanh, the sound of a deployment to the Green Sea, and the need for the Black Sheep aboard the Khe Sanh to fly attack missions was more than just tempting for Shane- who jumped at the chance to be involved in the fighting. The initial night-time bombing of Utes, against several SPAAG locations that threatened the air assault of Marines of the 27th MEU the next morning was something that Shane was a part of, and proved that he can still cut his teeth when it comes to flying his Harrier.
