Scout

Introduction
 is a character in the Task Force 589. He is from Boston, USA and serves as a distraction and close-range specialist.

Background
Originally named Micheal P. Dudley, Scout joined the military at 19 and due to his speed, was quickly nicknamed "Scout" by his squadmates. He rose to the rank of Sergeant after two years of service and even tried out for Green Beret training. Although he survived the three-week long qualifying course, he was not selected for Green Beret training. He was discharged with full honors after the LDN-Communist war.

Personality
A walking, talking Boston stereotype, Scout is aggressive, loud-mouthed and quick with an insult. He likes being in the 589, much like Sweetwater, but tends to doubt both his and his teammate's abilities (especially Sweetwater).
