Name: Major Erik Tan Age: 49 Gender: Male Nationality: German [hider=Bio:] Erik is a long serving member of Germany, and proud to be. At the ripe age of 18, World War One erupted, and Erik went to study at the Potsdam Kriegsschule learning infantry strategy and logistical warfare. Once graduated, Erik operated a domestic logistical command structure on the Eastern Front based in East Prussia; while in no danger, the pressure was still on to assist Austro-Hungarian forces fight Russian hordes day and night. Eventually, when the war came to a conclusion with the Treaty of Versailles, Erik was one of the few officers of the 22nd Army who wasn't relieved due to the crippling of the German economy. When Adolf Hitler ran for the Presidency of Germany, Erik was skeptical of his claims to return Germany to its former glory. However, when Hitler dominated the election and proceeded to reclaim old territories and re-mobilize the German Wehrmacht, Erik built trust for him. Now, after the Blitzkrieg of Poland, Erik is about to be launched into the fray again in the East, once again against the Russian forces, along with their many allies in the Soviet Union... [/hider] [hider=Personality:] Erik is a robust patriot for Germany who wants to see the long historical opponents of Deutschland kneel before the Fatherland. While this seems maniacal, he is also sympathetic, and believes in the policy of respecting the enemy. Take him as fair and just, but wielding an iron fist. He is also very conservative of resources, and hopes that his support will be put in efforts that will have a lasting effect, and will not take kindly to lost materials.
