known to man, you´re FOX HOUND´s most lethal fighting machine. You´re a
combination Rambo, James Bond, John Wayne and Lawrence of Arabia. You´re

the free world.
J.T.
A Double Naught Spy from the Air Force´s super secret Intelligence
Department, John Turner is the greatest camouflage artist ever. He was last
seen somewhere in South Vietnam back in 1969. But don´t worry, he´ll show
up for this mission.
Commando Nick Myer
Nick graduated magna cum laude from Harvard, but found that Wall Street´s
cutthroat attitude was too tame. So he joined FOX HOUND and quickly became
an explosives guru and leader of the Nitroglycerin Division. Nick´s
nickname: La Bomba.
Jennifer X
Very little is known about Jennifer, except the fact that she has an uncanny
ability to infiltrate an enemy´s headquarters. She´s currently posing as a
computer expert in the nerve center of Fortress Fanatic. Rumor has it that
she´s the younger sister of Ginger grom Gilligan´s Island. Hint: her secret
code name is Yr. Person.
