Counterterrorism Agent

John Doe was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After he graduated from high school, John went on to the University of Pennsylvania. He graduated from Penn with a Bachelor of Arts in Criminology and a commission as an Ensign in the United States Navy via the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps. While at Penn, John decided that he wanted to be a Navy SEAL. Soon after his commission as an Ensign, he began Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) training, which was followed by basic parachute training at the U.S Army Airborne School. John then moved on to SEAL Qualification Training. Following his completion of SQT, he attended SEAL Delivery Vehicle School. Afterwards, John was placed on board SEAL Delivery Vehicle Team One where he earned his SEAL Qualification Badge (Trident) and served as an assistant platoon commander. For his performance with SDVT-1, he earned the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal. Following that, John was assigned to SEAL Team 3 as a platoon commander. While with that SEAL Team, he earned the Silver Star for his actions during a combat mission. John was later given a staff assignment at the United States Naval Special Warfare Command, where he was involved in special operations planning.

With numerous commendations, he left the Navy after eight years of service and applied to join the U.S. Department of State's Diplomatic Security Service. After successfully passing the application process, John went through a training program that included the Criminal Investigator Training Program at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, a Basic Special Agent Course at the Diplomatic Security Training Center, and courses at the Foreign Service Institute. Upon completion of his training, he was assigned to the Los Angeles Field Office, where he spent the next two years conducting personnel security investigations. Eventually, John was posted to the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. While serving in the U.S. Secretary of State's protective detail, he caught the attention of a few high-level U.S. government officials when he discovered and defused an explosive device meant to kill the Secretary and a member of the Saudi royal family. Soon after that incident, John was personally contacted by the director of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's newly-established Office of Special Investigative Assistance with an offer of employment.

As a police and intelligence liaison unit, the Office of Special Investigative Assistance represents the collective intelligence capability and full muscle of the United States government to help neutralize and prevent terrorist actions against U.S. interests on a global level. Its overt mission is to assist foreign police, military, and intelligence agencies in helping prevent terrorist attacks against Americans and American interests abroad. The OSIA's innocuous title hides the covert mission of the unit, which is to combat the international terrorist threat against America by using the terrorists' own tactics against them.

John accepted the offer and joined the OSIA as a "special agent." The benign title leads most to believe that he works in the field, assisting foreign governments and law enforcement agencies in their counterterrorism efforts. That, after all, is the express mission statement of the OSIA. In reality, he is a very secretive dog of war to be unleashed upon the enemies of the United States to help prevent any future terrorist attacks on America. His goal is to level the playing field with international terrorists through one simple mandate -- as long as the terrorists refuse to play by any rules, he won't either. Simply put, his job is to hunt down terrorists and neutralize them by any means necessary. Much of his work is unofficial and "off the books." This includes covert and clandestine assignments wherein he operates independent of the U.S. national security apparatus and can therefore disregard impediments such as the executive order banning assassinations. As a premier counterterrorism agent, John Doe has helped save the United States from devastating terrorist attacks on many occasions.
