Filecard information:
Code Name: DEE-JAY
BATTLE FORCE 2000 COMM-TECH TROOPER
File Name: Rossi III, Thomas R. SN: 553-0935-RT56
Primary Military Specialty: Radio Telephone Operator
Secondary Military Specialty: Infantry (all the way)
Birthplace: Providence, Rhode Island
Grade: Sp-4 (Specialist)
DEE-JAY was the baddest, hottest, disc jockey in Boston before he signed up for the Battle Force 2000 team. Complicated sound equipment was no problem for him. If it is loaded with transistors, portable and transmits or receives radio waves, Dee-Jay can make it work, fix it and coax strange sounds out of it with an infectious beat.
"Simulated ground-wave transmitters and ultra-fast burst encoders are complicated pieces of electronic hardware. If you're pinned down in the bush and need a medivac extraction or old-fashioned air support, you're just whistling in the wind if your radio is down for the count. His teammates can count on Dee-Jay to get the message out, even if he has to rebuild a transmitter from parts. Once he's on the air, it's his chatter that they can do without."
