Bio/CV:Boris lived most of his childhood in Russian under rough circumstances. He was stealing food when being hungry, getting into brawls with neighborhood kids and running from the police. A normal kid of his town so to say.His mother immigrated towards the west ,later she met Boris´s new stepfather there.While attending school he forged friendships with many kids like him and quickly came to an understanding that as a minority some doors were open to him, which led to contact with drugs and firerarms in early youth. He knew too good what came from drugs since he experienced a lot of misery and violence caused by them but the hunger for money and status made him roll with it and hustle. Up until he finished school Boris kept in touch with with shady friends and bad company . The reason he maintained a good physical form trough lifting, running and martial arts was that he always had an affinity towards the military. But he wasn´t taken into the academy,even though he was in good physical shape and spoke 4 languages at that time, and started studying psychology.After finishing his psychology degree Bo decided that it wasn´t his way, he left the university with 21 and enlisted into the BKA where earned a degree in public administration and a certificate in Arabic. After that he decided give into the urge to go back to his homeland, where he served first in the Airborne Troops Mountain Division, where he learned mountaineering, to earn his citizenship back which he lost after the German naturalization, until he was 26.Then the GRU Spetsnaz where he became a Staff Sergeant with 28 and 5 tours, there he was put into the position of a Pointman/Marksman due to his past MOS in the VDV.The GRU (Spetsnaz) transferred him to Vympel(Recon,Sabotage,HVT Operations), where Boris learned everything a military spook needs(emphasis on Vympel´s jurisdiction) and also attended OCS which was mandatory, due to his cultural and language knowledge, he became a person of interest for European and middle eastern operations. Boris was married to Katja Melnikov which was killed by separatists as a retaliation for Bo´s operations Chechnya, Africa and South America. Ever since he is a single father, taking care of his 15 year old daughter Natasha. It is hard for him to handle the life of a single parent while also being on constant stand by in case a deployment comes up. .
