Filecard information:
CODE NAME: BAZOOKA
TIGER FORCE MISSILE SPECIALIST
File Name: Katzenbogen, David L. SN: 112-40-0577
Primary Military Specialty: Armor Defeating Weapons Systems
Secondary Military Specialty: Tiger Shark™ Driver
Birthplace: Hibbing, Minnesota
Grade: E-5
BAZOOKA was driving an Abrams tank in the "Third Horde" (Third Armored Div.) when he came to the realization that an illiterate farmer armed with a $200 disposable rocket launcher could knock out a million dollar tank with less than two weeks training. With that in mind, he put in for an immediate transfer to Tiger Force. Since that time, Bazooka has become a true specialist in the use of tactical assault missiles. Now, he can fire a surface-to-surface missile at a T-52 tank positioned over 2 miles away and blow off its gun barrel cleaner than knife through butter!
"Bazooka can tell you everything you need to know about missile attack systems, and then some! He'd talk your ear off if he wasn't always on the missile range target shooting. He never lets his missile launcher out of his sight, even when he goes for a joy ride in the Tiger Shark through Cobra.™ infested waters. He really lives by the words 'Be prepared for anything!' "
