Robert Taylor

Robert Taylor was the commander of Alpha Squad and was a renowned tactician. He was killed during the Battle of Washington D.C.

Military Career
Taylor enlisted in the army right out of high school, in 2010, and was given the rank of Sergeant. He served in the Army for 5 more years before he was promoted to the rank of Staff Sergeant. He was then promoted to the rank of First Sergeant after a brave rescue of 12 trapped marines during a battle in Afghanistan. While he was in the service, he became close friends with First Lieutenant Travis Anderson. Anderson taught Taylor how to talk to women because Taylor had always had a hard time talking to women. He also became friend with First Sergeant Robert Davis.

Commander of Alpha Squad
He was assigned commander of Alpha Squad not long before the breakout of the EU-Iran War. When the Koreans and Russians invaded the US, Taylor and Alpha Squad were assigned to defend Washington D.C. While he was in D.C., he learned that Lt. Anderson had been killed in combat in Ohio. This deeply affected Taylor and caused him to be cold to those around him. However, he became friends with his second-in-command, Jill Peters.

Battle of Washington D.C.
When the Russians and Koreans attacked Washington D.C., Taylor and his squad were assigned to defend the northern section of the city, along with Bravo Company. Taylor ordered Corporol Eric Saunders to plant explosives on the ground to destroy any tanks that came within range. After Bravo Squad was killed by one of the survivng tanks, Taylor drew his rocket launcher and destroyed the tanks.

Death
Only seconds after he destroyed the last tank, Taylor was killed by a sniper, who was then killed by Sergeant Nicholas Adrian, the squad sniper.
