The AWOL Green Colonel is a minor antagonist of Army Men II events<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“Madmen can have a hypnotic control effect on weak-minded individuals” – Green Command<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The Green Colonel (Aka The Colonel) was a Green Army Men<\/a> of long formation with the same military range as Colonel Grimm<\/a>, which at the end of his career ended with PTSD<\/a>, the most common stress-related mental disorder generally occurring in response to complex traumas, i.e., commonly prolonged or repetitive exposures to a series of traumatic events, like gunfire combat, within which individuals perceive little or no chance to escape. In the case of the Colonel, he apparently had a lunatic and distorted vision of reality after being exposed to the cruelty of the Tanic-Greno war<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Green Colonel complete record<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Green Colonel was a career officer in the Green Army<\/a>; he was a first generation Green Army Men<\/a> graduate who had risen through the ranks and was seen to be destined for a top post within the Triangle<\/a>. The Colonel saw action in the Greeno-Tanic war<\/a> after receiving a master’s degree in history from Green University<\/a>. He later graduated from the Green Army Airborne Cavalry School<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On September 28, 1998, 38-year-old Green Colonel applied for Green Special Forces, which was denied out of hand because his age was too advanced for Special Forces training. The Colonel continued with his ambition and even threatened to quit the Green Army, when finally his wish was granted and he was allowed to take the airborne course. The Colonel graduated in a class where he was nearly twice the age of the other trainees and was accepted into the Special Forces Training, and eventually into the 5th Special Green Forces Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Colonel returned to the war in 1998 with the Green Berets and was part of the hearts and clovers campaign. On his next tour, the Colonel was assigned to Project GAARD<\/a>, in which he was to raise an army of “Montagnards<\/a>” (Grey Soldiers<\/a>) in and around the Blue<\/a>–Grey<\/a>–Tan<\/a> border to strike at the Tan Army<\/a>. The Colonel located his army, including their wives and children, at a remote abandoned ancient temple in an unnamed sector, a tropical island region<\/a> which Colonel’s team fortified. From their base, the Colonel led attacks on the local Tan<\/a> in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Colonel employed barbaric methods not only to defeat his enemy but also to send fear. At first the Green Army did not object to Colonel’s tactics, especially as they proved successful. This soon changed when the Colonel allowed photographs of his atrocities to be released to the Plastic World<\/a>. After that Green Colonel failed to comply to Green Command’s repeated orders to return to his land and resign his command after he ordered the summary execution of four Blue intelligence agents<\/a> working for the Green Army<\/a> whom he suspected of being double agents for the Tan<\/a>. His overtly critical and weird report about this was not what was expected and was immediately restricted for the Green Command and President only. That was the straw that almost broke the camel’s back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Colonel’s demise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 1999, the Green Army<\/a> sent the Colonel to a “somewhat calm and routine” secret mission. Nobody imagined that this would be actually the straw that broke the camel’s back\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Green<\/a> Colonel was originally sent two weeks before the date where he was declared AWOL to a tropical island region<\/a>, the sector C4<\/a> of the Plastic World<\/a>, very close from his base location, on a secret reconnaissance mission in order to monitor why there was so much Tan activity in that region, since the region had no apparent strategic value. However, he went dark for quite some time and his status was unknown. Green command received a somewhat confusing report from the Colonel before they lost contact with his entire platoon. That was a week before they sent Sarge on a mission to search after him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The colonel’s message said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“There’s evidence everywhere here of a large scale archaeological excavation but whatever the Tan were looking for they either found it or lost interest because it looks like they picked up and left in a hurry. Wait a minute HQ, we found\u2026 (communication lost)”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
