History
Early History
HUNK's history is unknown. In 1996, he began military training on Rockfort Island where his professional skills were formed. Some time afterwards, he became a Special Agent of the Umbrella Security Service, an elite private unit under the direct control of Umbrella executives, and became leader of Alpha Team, taking part in many operations. His high survival rate in the operations he took part in made him a rival to Nicholai Zinoviev, a "Monitor" of the internal espionage organization of Umbrella who held a similar survival rate and became jealous of HUNK.
G-Virus Seizure Operation (September 1998)
In mid-September 1998, two teams of the U.S.S. were deployed by Umbrella Headquarters to retrieve samples of the recently completed G-virus from the rogue William Birkin. The order was relayed to HUNK of Alpha team by Christine Henri of Umbrella's France branch 5, with HUNK himself being put in command of the two teams. Recon of the sewers leading to the Raccoon City Underground Laboratory was performed on September 20.
The two teams infiltrated the laboratory on September 23. After confronting Birkin, a team member severely injured him with gunfire. HUNK and the other member retrieved the case containing multiple viral samples, including the t-virus and G-virus, and made their way back to the sewers where the two teams were to rendezvous. However, Birkin had kept a sample of the G-virus with him, and promptly injected himself with it to exact revenge on his assassins. Afterwards, HUNK made it to the sewers with Birkin in pursuit, and the entire team was wiped out by the new 'G' creature. HUNK however, managed to fend off the rampaging Birkin, while another member named Miguel received a head injury, but survived.
Over the next week, HUNK's exact actions are unknown, but he had managed to retrieve a sample of the G-virus. At dawn on September 30, HUNK made his way through the sewers and contacted the helicopter waiting for him circling the city, and proceeded to make his way through the sewers and Raccoon Police Department to reach his extraction point. While pressing on he encountered many monsters, but managed to defeat or evade them. He arrived at the R.P.D. heliport and successfully escaped with the G-virus, adding to the list of missions in which he was the only returning survivor. After making his way to Loire Village, HUNK turned over the virus to representatives of the France branch of Umbrella.
T-078 Transportation Mission (Late 1998)
After the successful recovery of the G-virus, HUNK was charged with transporting a Tyrant (T-103 Mass Produced Type) to Rockfort Island, and wrote a report to Alfred Ashford reminiscing about his time at the facility 6. In this letter, he also issued a complaint as to the usage of his team in such a potentially dangerous mission with a lack of briefing on the contents on the capsule, which could have potentially put him and his team at risk. While he paid verbal and written respects to Ashford, he had some unfavourable opinions of him.
His whereabouts and status after 1998 are unknown.
