Tyus' father was heavily into Martial arts, enrolling his son at an early age. Tyus received a Junior Black Belt at age 11 after four years of training and then his first degree black belt in Kempo Karate at age 14. As a teen, Tyus was able to move into the Teen Krav Maga program where he trained on the Israeli Self-Defense form, borrowing techniques from Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and Taekwondo. By age 17, Tyus had his second degree black belt with training in both Kempo Karate and Krav Maga. Since, his father was seriously interested in Martial arts as well, the father and son worked out frequently together, helping to hone Tyus' skills. Tyus was not an exceptional student in school receiving average grades, but also learning how to speak German in the process. He spent most of his High School years playing soccer in the fall and running with the track team in the spring. He excelled in athletic pursuits. After High School, Tyus enlisted in the United States Army attending Basic Combat & Infantry Training at Ft. Benning, GA. Upon completion of the 14-week Infantry Course, he proceeded to Airborne and Ranger Schools, both at Ft. Benning. In 1999, after successfully completing training requirements as an Airborne Ranger, Private (E2) Morse was assigned to the 2nd Ranger Battalion at Joint Base Lewis-McChord about five miles south of Tacoma, WA. By October, 2001, Private First Class (E3) Tyus Morse was reassigned to A Company, First Battalion, 27th Infantry (1-27 IN), 25th Infantry Division at Schofield Barracks, HI. On 1 January 2002, Tyus Morse was promoted to Sergeant (E5) and assigned as an Infantry Team Leader with C Co., 1-27 IN. By August, he re-enlisted for another four years and submitted a request for Special Forces Training. In January 2003, Sergeant Morse arrived at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center (JFK-SWC) in order to enter the selection process for the Special Forces Qualification Course. The course lasted one year and three months for Sergeant Morse. At its conclusion, he received the 18B Special Operations Weapons Sergeant MOS. He also received classroom instruction in the Arabic language. In April 2004, Sergeant Morse was assigned to Operational Detachment Alpha (ODA) 5235, C Co., 2nd Battalion 5th Special Forces Group (2-5 SFG), Ft. Campbell, KY. While with 5th Group, Sergeant Morse deployed to the Middle East at least a dozen times between 2004 and 2008. During this time, he was promoted to Staff Sergeant (SSG) and engaged the enemy no fewer than forty-three separate engagements. During this time, he received several minor injuries and was hospitalized for a brief stint in 2006 for a gunshot wound (GSW) to the right thigh. Also as a member of the Special Forces community, Tyus was able to continue training in Krav Maga. This is the martial art/self defense form used by all US Special Operations units. In 2008, after ten years in the US Army, Staff Sergeant Morse requested training and assignment to the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta. He was recruited and indoctrinated into the dark underworld of a unit that is informally referred to as [i]Delta Force[/i]. As a Delta operator, SSG Morse was deployed to many locations around the world. He received training in speaking Russian, Farsi and Polish while serving with Delta. He has engaged the enemy in numerous hostile actions and received additional wounds forcing him to receive hospital care. In 2014, Tyus Morse retired from the Army as a Sergeant First Class (E7) with sixteen years time in service in order to pursue a career as a Private Military Contractor. He applied for and was accepted to Task Force ZERO.[/hider] [color=00a651][b]Notes:[/b][/color] [hider=Equipment][color=00a651][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Personal Clothing Items:[/u][/b][/color][/indent] [list]* OD Green cargo trousers * Sand colored Nike Special Field Boots * OD Green Under Armor Combat Shirt * OD Green Tactical MOLLE Assault Vest [Ammo Pouches, hydration system, first aid kit, butt pack] * Black Tactical Elite Combat Helmet * 2 Pr Tactical Assault Gloves, one with fingers, one without. * MOLLE Patrol Pack * Black wool watchcap * Black sunglasses * Weapons cleaning kit with CLP in Butt Pack * cleaning rag in Butt Pack * change of socks and powder in Butt Pack * Broken down MRE in Butt Pack * Trip Wire and Nails in Butt Pack * 200 feet of 550-Lb cord, OD Green * Black electrical tape * OD Green 100 mile an hour tape * Tactical thigh holster for .40 Cal Sig Sauer * Camouflage poncho in Butt Pack[/list] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Weapons/Ammunition:[/u][/b][/color][/indent] Standard carry: [list]* FN SCAR 17H 20" barrel with tactical sling * TA11 ACOG * 12x 20-Round box magazines * 300 rounds of 7.62mm Ball Ammunition * P229 Sig Sauer Pistol * 5x 14-round .40 S&W Magazines * 200 rounds .40 Cal S&W SJHP * Gerber Mark II Survival Knife * Gerber Boot Knife * Gerber Leatherman Multi-Tool[/list] CQB Loadout: [list]* MP5/40 Sub Machine Gun * 12x 30-Round box magazines * 600 rounds of .40 S&W SJHP * P229 Sig Sauer Combat Pistol * 5x 14-round .40 S&W Magazines * Gerber Mark II Survival Knife * Gerber Boot Knife * Gerber Leatherman Multi-Tool[/list] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Technology:[/u][/b][/color][/indent] [list]* Laser Range Finder * AN/PRC-148 MBITR (Handheld Radio) * AT RF23 EPM Handheld Transceiver (VHF Radio for communication with Close Air Support Aircraft.) * Steiner M1050R 10x50 Binoculars. * AN/PVS-14 Night Vision Device * GPS[/list] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Pyrotechnics:[/u][/b][/color] An assortment of Fragmentation Grenades, Parachute flares, various colored star clusters to always include at least one red star cluster.

He has fair skin and light blondish colored hair and blue eyes. He is in decent shape, appearing to be of an average build for someone his age and size. Romek sports a tattoo of the Polish Airborne insignia on his left forearm and the Polish White Eagles on his left bicep. [color=00a651][b]Brief Background:[/b][/color][hider=Background] Romek Joachim Czerepusko was born on the 5th of October 1990 in Białystok, Poland. His father, Lucjan Czerepusko has an excellent job working for the passenger rail service in Bialystok, Railways Mazowieckie. The rail company provides passenger service between Bialystok and Warsaw. Romek's father works as a conductor on the rail service making regular trips to Warsaw and back. The rail line itself continues through the Baltic States and travels as far as Helsinki, Finland. In 2008, Romek graduated from secondary education and immediately enlisted in the Polish Army. He never wanted to go to work on the railroad like his father and envisioned a life of excitement for himself one day. Romek grew up speaking both Polish and Russian. It was quite common for the people in Eastern Poland to speak Russian as well as their native language. After completing Basic Training, Romek attended Scout school. Due to a natural ability to shoot very well, probably due to his vision test scores resulting in him having 20/15 vision, he was recommended for sniper training. Scout school taught him everything he needed to know about observing locations and identifying Russian, American and the European made military vehicles used by their corresponding armies. Sniper school helped him to learn the science behind ballistics and meteorology as applied to engaging targets at extreme range. During Sniper school, he also had to handcraft his own camouflage suit, what those in the profession call a Ghillie Suit. The Ghillie Suit is intended to break up the outline of the sniper so that he is more difficult to locate in a blended setting. As a trainee, Romek held the rank of Szeregowy (Basic Private). After the initial training is complete, he was promoted to Starzy Szeregowy (Private). Upon completion of Sniper School, Romek then attended Polish Airborne School where he successfully earned his parachutist badge. From there, he was assigned to the 10th Airborne Battalion in the 6th Airborne Brigade. Romek spent the next four years in the Airborne, where he saw a deployment to the Balkans and then later to Afghanistan. While in Afghanistan, he spent most of his time working in a command bunker and never had the opportunity to engage a living target. While he was with the 10th Airborne Battalion, Romek was promoted to Kapral (Private First Class) and later to Starszy Kapral (Senior Private/Specialist) In 2014, Romek transferred to the 18th Reconnaissance Regiment where he served in the Long Range Reconnaissance Teams assigned the Regiment's Headquarters Company. As a member of the LRRP teams, Romek spent time learning to ride Horses as well as Kawasaki Motorcycles. The teams typically were inserted by helicopter, but occasionally travel by horseback or by motorcycle. Their mission was to go deep behind enemy lines and report on strategic locations of enemy forces. Just prior to his transfer to the 18th Recon Regt Starszy Kapral Czerepusko attended a two-month NCO leadership academy which enabled his promotion to Sierżant (Sergeant). During his time in the Polish Army, Romek chose to learn the English language. He has been studying English for six years and has a solid fluency in the language. By mid 2016, Romek chose to leave the Polish Army to pursue a career as a Private Military Contractor. He was hired recently by Task Force ZERO.[/hider] [color=00a651][b]Notes:[/b][/color] [hider=Equipment][color=00a651][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Personal Clothing Items:[/u][/b][/color][/indent] [list]* Wz. 2010 uniform * forage cap * Ghillie Suit * Puma Backpack * Assault Vest (ammunition pouches, water canteens & first aid pouch) * Kneed pads * Elbow pads * waterproof map * tactical pistol holster * compass * protractor * pen * notebook * waterproof matches * water purification tablets * first-aid kit * three days rations * spare magazines for pistol (9mm), rifle (7.62mm) and carbine (5.56mm)[/list] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Weapons/Ammunition:[/u][/b][/color][/indent] [list]* Bor 7.62mm bolt action sniper rifle /w Mark 6 Leupold scope (18x44 magnification) * FB Mini-Beryl (5.56 mm) carbine * WIST-94 9mm Semi-Automatic handgun * wz. 98 knife * H6 Bayonet. * TA11 ACOG * 5x 10-round box magazines (7.62mm) * 12x 30-Round box magazines (5.56mm) * 5x 16-round 9mm Magazines * 80 rds. 9x19mm Parabellum * 360 rounds 5.56x45mm * 50 rounds 7.62x51mm * four M18 Claymore Anti-Personnel Mines * four Flash-bang grenades * four fragmentation grenades[/list] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Technology:[/u][/b][/color][/indent] [list]* Laser Range Finder * AN/PRC-148 MBITR (Handheld Radio) * AN/PVS-14 Night Vision Device * GPS[/list] [indent][color=00a651][b][u]Pyrotechnics:[/u][/b][/color] An assortment of Fragmentation Grenades, Parachute flares, various colored star clusters to always include at least one red star cluster.
