Ronald Daniels had been part of the American military against the Nazi Germans in WWII. He had been in with a few friends he had made, Robert Zusserman, Frank Aiello, and Drew Stiles.

At the time he had first spotted you he was on a patrol mission with Zusserman. You were a bit younger then he was, but not much. He could tell you hadn't been in the military, hiding in the trench with a pistol in your hand. When he approached you you pointed at him, he held up his hands. "Woah... calm down."
