Jack grimaces at the mention of the PLANTS, for him, memories of Bloody Valentine's day, the cause of the war from his timeline from what he could think to call it, rushing to the surface. Of course, his hometown had always been small and fairly unimportant in the eyes of the townsfolk, at least until ZAFT attacked all across Earth in retaliation on top of dropping Neutron Jammers all over the planet, nullifying the EA's only effective means of supplying power to the planet. A lot of Naturals died that winter, as well as Coordinators who didn't live on PLANTS. It had only furthered Jack's personal reasons for joining the EA military.

"Well, the Bloody Valentine War was initiated by the EA. They launched a nuclear strike against the PLANT Junius Seven, wiped out the whole thing. They retaliated quickly and viciously, with coordinated strikes against numerous towns and cities and the dispersion of N-Jammers to kill our nuclear power plants. The following winter of CE 70-71 had a lot of Naturals dead because of a lack of proper power." Shaking his head, Jack grabs his helmet and puts it on. "Get me set up to head out. I'll find Aker."
