TUNNEL RAT believes that anything that doesn't kill you makes you stronger. His feeling about crawling into an enemy tunnel with a knife in one hand, a pistol in the other and a flashlight in his mouth is simple -- he can shoot straighter, bite harder and run faster than anything he's ever encountered in a tunnel, so why worry? Tunnel Rat's family tree is Tridadian Chinese with branches of Irish, Spanish and Indian thrown in. He grew up on the streets of Brooklyn, got tough on the Ranger Course at Fort Benning and honed his skills in Grenada. He is a qualified expert with all NATO small arms and is familiar with most Warsaw Pact explosive devices.

  • During the Vietnam War "tunnel rat" became a more or less official speciality for volunteer infantrymen, primarily from the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. Their motto was the Latin phrase "Non Gratum Anus Rodentum" - "Not worth a rat's ring". Since the 1940s, during the war against the French colonial forces, the Viet Cong had created an extensive underground system of complexes. By the 1960s there were underground hospitals, training grounds, storage facilities, headquarters, and more. The Viet Cong, who were crack forces highly skilled at guerilla warfare, might stay underground for several months at a time. The tunnels were their territory.
