Sgt. Beckett, "The Big Nailer", AFS C.D. Polar Bear, Covert Operations

During the fighting in Nth America, this team of covert operations specialists turned down their scheduled upgrade to SAFS suits and instead upgraded their AFS C.D. Polar Bear suits and retained them for much longer than most other such teams. After field testing the SAFS, they reasoned that their current suits fitted their covert operations tasks more closely and that the SAFS was not yet reliable enough for the extended field use they were were seeing in Alaska, ranging far in advance of the Forward Operating Bases.

Seen here in his customized AFS C.D. Polar Bear suit in a broken ground pattern of his own design, Sgt. Beckett, a former marksman and sniper before being transferred to an AFS equipped unit, has earned himself the nickname, "The Big Nailer". He has had an interesting and varied career and has helped his team to great success with his expertise in field craft, stealth, infiltration and pioneering "sniping" techniques and hit and run tactics for the AFS suits. Despite operating in an earlier model suit, his skills close the gap and put him on an equal footing with SAFS equipped troopers.

With this particular suit, he has a record of 8 confirmed Melusine kills, a record which remains to this day.
