Personal History | Oliver was born in the east end of London, England. His upbringing wasn't particularly good and would probably go as far as to say it was pretty hard. His father was partial to a drink, in fact both parents were but his father was a particularly hard man. Always pushed him to be strong, forcing him to train and push him to his limits. Trained him to be reliant only on himself and the feelings made you weak. Through physical and emotional abuse he was pushed to become the man his father wanted him to be. As he grew up he got into all sorts of trouble. The police knew his name well as he got caught up in light crimes such as shoplifting, fighting, drinking to name but a few. It was when he was old enough to enlist, the age of 16, that he was essentially pushed into it by his older brothers, also part of the armed forces. One in the Navy, other in the Army. They believed this would straighten him out and it did to a degree but he channelled his frustrations and issues into combat and killing. Truth be told Oliver joined the Royal Marines as much to spite everyone as it was for himself to get away from his family. After many years in the marines he specialised in a few areas such as breaching, bomb defusal and such. His favourite being the most covert operations and had a knack for taking a beating as well as giving them out. When he had came home he met his now wife and through that relationship has produced offspring. From this there was a bit of stability for a time. His drinking calmed down, his own family grew. At the age of 24 he was approached by a member of the SAS and was offered a chance to impress. If so he's join the elite group of men and women entrusted with the most delicate operations, the most dangerous and to him the most rewarding. Over his career he has fought in Iraq, Afghanistan and other foreign operations. He joined a combined effort in Antarctica due to his expertise in special operations and reputation amongst the SAS and those met during foreign operations, and was assigned to special operation in Antarctica on request of the UEO and UN. |
