Background

When NATO invaded Yemen Carl "Manly" Powers was a young Marine with more luck than brains. He did his stint, got out alive, and like most veterans did his best to return to civilian life. It never worked out, and when 2020 came by he was recalled from IRR. Despite a lot of close calls he never saw any action, and was firmly let go when X-Com took care of things after Annapolis. He drifted for a few years, then got caught in Richmond when it was hit by a terror attack. Seeing X-Com in action was enough to make him sign up the next day.
