John had come from a very long line of soldiers, every male Member of his family has served in the military since before the founding of the United States, and ever female member as severed since they were allowed to join. Every member had been the been the best of the best, it was a family tradition and a hard name to live up to. At a young age he knew what he wanted to do, he could be easily found playing Soldier with a bunch of kids or playing in his Father's or Mother' uniforms. He began training and preparing for it since at the age of seven, getting physically and mentally tough and ready for his life in the Special Ops. When it was time to do his part for his country he enlisted and joined the Military, at 17 with consent from his Father and mother. He graduated from boot camp, for Infantry. While in training he learned how to fight, shoot, use tactics to get the upper hand and anything he would need in his military career.
While on leave at from the front lines, John was at a small village, near a Marine base, that came under attack from a large hostile force. He quickly relieved one of them from his weapon and began to engages and fight off the rest of the enemy. He was single handedly able to hold off the large enemy assault on a the village, using only the rifle, his bladed weapons, and bare hands, until reinforcements could arrive. He saved countless lives in the process of risking his own life on more then one occasion. For heroism in the line of duty, he was decorated with medals for his Valor, going above and beyond the Call of Duty
Grimm was select for a cross branch training program, where he trained harder then he ever could have trained. He passed all the test all exams and all his tests, he was accepted into, the world of a Special Forces Operator. There he used all of his skills to fight for his nation, and the Military. He lived up to the the title his call sign, Reaper, he was the last thing many enemies saw before they died.
With his new Unit he was called in for a high risk mission, to strike at the enemy and cripple them. During the mission he was captured so that his team could escape safely, he was held as a prisoner of war. He was able to escape from his cell using only a Bobby pin and his bare hands, the bobby pin was not only used to pick the cell's lock but as a weapon. He set the other POW's free and led them all to their freedom. When he got back to the states he was presented with another more medals for his Act of Valor, for risking his life to save his team and leading the prisoners to their own freedom.
He was called in to give support to other units because of his certain skill set, and abilities. He went down range with them taking on high risk missions, Tier One, putting down people and groups who directly want to harm and kill Americans. During these level of mission know one knew where he was or what exactly what he was doing. Grimm was selected to lead a new type of unit that would take on even more risky mission. The mission would prevent all out war from breaking out in the world. His nation had full deniability, if they were caught their would be no trace of their existence or place of origin.
For these mission, he went off the grid and off the range, to help build this new unit from the ground up. This group was unknown to the public and the most of the military, but if they were known they would all be legends, do to the high risk level of their missions. If he was to be captured there would be nothing that can tie him to his country, making sure war does not fall upon his home.
But all was not a happy ending. Grimm knew to much and could do to much he needed to be shut down. During a mission he was framed for the death of innocent civilians and for treason. The organization doing the dirty work to remove him from the face of the earth forgot one thing, that he was the best and John easily got way from them. He did what he knew, be a Soldier, so he became a Mercenary and Bounty Hunter, working on his own doing the right thing and always striving to clear his name. He went from around standing up for the innocent and punishing the wicked.
In time we was able to get his name cleared and put everything right, even though the people he fought for knew he never did those things, but it was good to be finally be a free man once again. But he liked his line of work, he could go where he was needed and help the weak and bring death to those who are evil and brought harm on others. He would take any job no matter the money if it was for the right reason. But never would work for those who had evil intentions or wrong doing on their agenda.
