[*] A crude scrawling on helmet, labeled “WARNING: CONTENTS UNDER PRESSURE” with an exclamation point in a yellow triangle beside the writing. [/list] Psych Evaluation: Austin is a kind, down-to-earth person with a genuine personality and a constant sense of hospitality and empathy. His sense of humor is often crude, and he doesn’t beat around the bush with statements, being rather blunt, while still retaining his politeness. He is rather patriotic, especially when it comes to his home state of Tennessee, and transplants his own Appalachian culture with him wherever he goes, from the accent to his casual attire, plastered with the colors and crests of both the University of Tennessee at Knoxville and East Tennessee University at Johnson City. History: Austin was born in the Limestone community of Greene County, Tennessee in 1989. He attended Chuckey Primary School and then Chuckey-Doak High School before graduating with a 3.7 GPA. He enlisted in the US Army National Guard soon after, and shipped to Fort Benning, Georgia, attending basic training and advanced training there before being assigned to Troop L, 3rd Squadron, 278th Armored Cavalry Regiment the following year. Troop L, resident in his own Greene County, allowed him to live and work in his hometown with minimal effort necessary for the required monthly duty report. On a month-long excursion to a troop duty post at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, he completed the famed Spur Ride and earned his silver spurs, and was deployed to Iraq with the rest of the regiment as part of the fourth phase of Operation Iraqi Freedom, more specifically to Camp Speicher near Tikrit with the rest of 3rd Squadron. He returned with gold spurs and a combat action badge, both indicative of combat service, and was honorably discharged the following year. He sought a subsequent law enforcement career with the Tennessee Highway Patrol as a State Trooper, serving for three years in the East Tennessee District before being approached by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) with an offering for the position as part of one of the DEA-ATF cooperative Special Response Teams (SRTs) deployed abroad across the US. He served for four years with postings across the US, from the Southern California District headquartered in Los Angeles to the Northern Virginia District headquartered in Richmond before formal request for federal reassignment to a local posting. He was initially slotted as an SRT attache for the S-SWAT team in Anytown City, New Hampshire, before being affirmed as a permanent member.
