 | RECONDO was an instructor at the Jungle Warfare Training Center where all the bad-to-the-bone soldiers learn their trade. He learned his craft the hard way, waist deep in leech-infested water or hacking his way through dense triple-canopy forest while dodging bullets and grenades. As cruel and as unforgiving as the jungle is, RECONDO considers it his friend, especially if he can lure the enemy deep inside where they are cut off from support and help.
Rumor has it that once, when RECONDO was on a recon mission in the middle of some dense jungle outback, a whole command section of IRON GRENADIERS went chasing in after him and he sent the lot of them packing with their tails between their legs. That this tale is true seems to be borne out by the fact that IRON GRENADIERS have posted a cash reward among themselves for whoever brings RECONDO in. "You go into the jungle prepared to fight it, you're going to lose. You make your peace with the bugs, the snakes and the heat, and then you've got half a chance."
