Excuse me for this faggy question. But is there any real life

No, and if there were you can be damn sure it'd be covered up in red tape thick enough to build a bridge out of.
Reality defies simple answers, there is no one man army behind the scenes of any given military conflict or era

>>33638377
No.

>>33638377
No. There is not some government super soldier that brought down the russians in afghanistan, Rhodesians in Africa, A giant mechanical doomsday t rex, built his own base in the ocean, then got some more mechanical t rexs, and did stuff in Zanzibar.

>>33638391
Had a feeling, but it would be cool if that was actually the case. Like there was a real Solid Snake type person, but honestly I think that would just be someone not human. The amount of not only physical but psychological strength displayed by Snake can't really be replicated I don't think

>>33638419
No obviously, but Big Boss wasn't a super soldier, he was just insanely well trained and an elite soldier with a ridiculous high IQ.

>>33638441
Oh so a soldier of super qualities then?

>>33638457
Haha, I see what you mean, but he wasn't genetically modified in any way

>>33638457
In-canon Boss is supposed to be genetically pre-disposed towards perfect "soldier" traits.
Kojima has a very loose grasp of genetics, mind

Of course the fifth game makes this all seem like bullshit because a random shmuck that got blown up in a helicopter and lost his fucking arm and most of his prefrontal cortex literally does shit far beyond the real Big Boss. Same game also establishes that the real Big Boss apparently had a cleanup crew led by a man equally as skilled as he was during the entirety of his single most high-stakes and infamous mission which became the basis of his entire career, so maybe Big Boss is just a fucking patsy

He was a soldier/commander, obviously not "Super" though. But holy fuck, Aaron Burr comes close, he went into the wilderness of the Louisiana territory and began assembling a ragtag army of indians, and random settlers, potentially to set up his own nation in the frontier.

Mind you, he did all this after serving as the most hated VP in history, because he shot Hamilton in the chest in fucking public broad fucking daylight and had the balls to show up for duty in Washington like right after and act like nothing was wrong.

But anyway, if anyone was gonna set up a military based rogue nation, it would have been this guy.

Paddy Mayne

On July 4, even before the transformation was complete, an SAS convoy set out to raid the airfields scattered in the Bagush/Fuka region, 100 miles behind enemy lines. Reaching Bagush on the night of July 7, Mayne and three men blew up 22 aircraft with plastic explosives. This was far fewer than they had sabotaged, and Mayne growled, “Damn, we did 40 aircraft. Some of the bloody primers must have been damp.” Not about to leave the job undone, Mayne and Stirling charged their vehicles onto the airfield and opened up with their Vickers guns, firing 1,200 rounds per minute apiece. Stunned by this new assault after they assumed the saboteurs had departed, the Germans ran for cover as the raiders shot to pieces 12 more

The epithet "Mad" Mike Hoare comes from broadcasts by East German radio during the fighting in the Congo in the 1960s. They would precede their commentary with "The mad bloodhound, Mike Hoare"

>>336414Hoare and his mercenaries worked in concert with Belgian paratroopers, Cuban exile pilots, and CIA-hired mercenaries who attempted to save 1,600 civilians (mostly Europeans and missionaries) in Stanleyville from the Simba rebels in Operation Dragon Rouge.

Hoare was born in British India to Irish parents He was educated in England. He joined the London Irish Rifles at the outbreak of the Second World War, and served in India and Burma as an officer. He achieved the rank of major. After the war, he completed his training as a chartered accountant, and qualified in 1948.

he said to journalists "killing communists is like killing vermin, killing African nationalists is as if one is killing an animal. I don't like either one or the other. My men and I have killed between 5,000 to10,000 Congo rebels in the 20 months that I have spent in the Congo. But that's not enough. There are 20 million Congolese you know and I assume that about half of them at one time or another were rebels whilst I was down here."

Irish-South African novelist Bree O'Mara (1968–2010) was his niece. She had written an unpublished account of his adventures as a mercenary in the Congo when she died on Afriqiyah Airways Flight 77

To that end though, there's nothing really wrong with brainless paramedic assuming big boss's role, as the whole theme of MGS2 was about whether or not normal people with the proper condition could do the same feats as a genetically superior soldier. nature vs nurture

Ed "Too Tall" Freeman. This motherfucker right here.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Freeman

Facebook copypasta that always stabs me right in the feels:

You're a 19 year old kid. You are critically wounded and dying in the jungle somewhere in the Central Highlands of Viet Nam . It's November 11, 1967. Your unit is outnumbered 8-1 and the enemy fire is so intense from 100 yards away, that your CO has ordered the MedEvac helicopters to stop coming in. You're lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns and you know you're not getting out. Your family is half way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and you'll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day.

Then - over the machine gun noise - you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter. You look up to see a Huey coming in. But.. It doesn't seem real because no MedEvac markings are on it. Captain Ed Freeman is coming in for you. He's not MedEvac so it's not his job, but he heard the radio call and decided he's flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire anyway. Even after the MedEvacs were ordered not to come. He's coming anyway. And he drops it in and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 3 of you at a time on board. Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire to the doctors and nurses and safety.

And, he kept coming back, 13 more times, until all the wounded were out. No one knew until the mission was over that the Captain had been hit 4 times in the legs and left arm. He took 29 of you and your buddies out that day. Some would not have made it without the Captain and his Huey.

"Taking shelter from the weather in an abandoned farmhouse on 2 March, Murphy and his platoon killed the crew of a passing German tank.[42] He then crawled out alone close enough to destroy the tank with rifle grenades, for which he received the Bronze Star with "V" Device.[43][44]"

"Two Germans exited a house about 100 yards (91 m) away and appeared to surrender; when Murphy's best friend responded, they shot and killed him. Murphy advanced alone on the house under direct fire. He killed six, wounded two and took 11 prisoner.[52]"

"While en route to Brouvelieures on 26 October, the 3rd Platoon of Company B was attacked by a German sniper group. Murphy captured two before being shot in the hip by a sniper; he returned fire and shot the sniper between the eyes."

> You will never be given a badass nom de guerre by Erwin Rommel himself

Miller only found out afterwards though, and was bitter as fuck that his Bromance would deceive him like that. Which is why he abandons Diamond Dogs and goes back to the States, eventually becoming an instructor at Foxhound.

>No mention of Leo Major

You disappoint me /k/.

Leo Major is the original Canadian Danger Leaf, on the night of April 13 1945, Major single-handedly liberated the city of Zwolle in the Netherlands from German army occupation. Private Major and his friend Corporal Willie Arseneault stepped forward to accept the task. To keep the city intact, the pair decided to try to capture Zwolle alone, though they were only supposed to recce the German numbers and try to contact the Dutch Resistance.

Around midnight Arseneault was killed by German fire after accidentally giving away the pair's position. Enraged, Major killed two of the Germans, but the rest of the group fled in a vehicle. He decided to continue his mission alone. He entered Zwolle near Sassenport and came upon a staff car. He ambushed and captured the German driver, and then led him to a bar where an armed officer was taking a drink. After disarming the officer he found that they could both speak French (the officer was from Alsace), and Major told him that at 6:00 am Canadian artillery would begin firing on the city, which would cause numerous casualties among both the German troops and the civilians. The officer seemed to understand the situation so Major took a calculated risk and let the men go, hoping they would spread the news of their hopeless position instead of rallying the troops. As a sign of good faith, he gave the German his gun back.

>>33644491

Major then proceeded to run throughout the city firing his sub-machine gun, throwing grenades and making so much noise that he fooled the Germans into thinking that the Canadian Army was storming the city in earnest. As he was doing this, he would attack and capture German troops. About 10 times during the night he captured groups of 8 to 10 German soldiers, escorted them out of the city and gave them to the French-Canadian troops that were waiting in the vicinity. After transferring his prisoners to the troops, he would return to Zwolle to continue his assault. However, four times during the night he had to force his way into civilians' houses to get some rest. He eventually located the Gestapo HQ and set the building on fire. Later stumbling upon the SS HQ, he got into a quick but deadly fight with eight Nazi officers: four were killed, the others fled. He noticed that two of the SS he had just killed were disguised as resistance members.

Major found out later that morning that the Germans had fled to the west of the River IJssel and, perhaps more importantly, that the planned shelling of the city would be called off and his Régiment de la Chaudière could enter the city unopposed. Major then took his dead friend back to the Van Gerner farm until regimental reinforcements could carry him away. He was back at camp by 9:00 am. For his actions, he received the Distinguished Conduct Medal.

They probably felt it was a pretty equal, if tense and contemptuous, relationship. They wanted him because he was good and refused to permanently remove his name from the list of Nazi war criminals. He wanted them because he liked his job and knew, at the very least, they wouldn't kill him as long as he worked for them. The only really distasteful part of the arrangement was that he sold out his former comrades as part of his job.

This. Miller allowed The Patriots to believe he'd fallen for the ruse or otherwise remained loyal to Big Boss. He never exposed the leak and was, ostensibly, killed by Liquid Snake under advice from Ocelot to keep him from exposing the leak after Shadow Moses Island was inevitably retaken.

A continent and generation torn apart by the worst war yet in human history, decades of economic and political hardship, and watching a continent fall to a seemingly unstoppable onslaught until you and your nation stand alone against it.

Basically adversity no American has ever faced in recent history.

A short list of badasses:

Dipprasud Pun: Gurkha who killed 30 men in hand to hand combat AFTER he ran out of ammo using, grenades, a landmine, his kukri and beating a Taliban to death with the tripod of his machine gun

Miyamoto Musashi: undefeated in hand to hand combat after 60 duels intentionally seeking out the greatest practictioners of martial arts. Defeated his first samurai by going into a berseker rage at 12 and slaughtering the full grown & experienced samurai. retired to a life of contemplation, attained enlightenment and wrote the book of 5 rings

Simo Hayha - deadlist sniper in history, set that record in 2 months of combat then got shot in the face and lived.

William E Fairbane - Like MMA? Knife fighting? Tacticool pistol shooting? Meet the guy who invented it - then help invent the modern special forces and train them in hand to hand combat. 600 street fights as a Singapore cop and never lost 1.

Anthony Joseph Drexel Biddle Sr - Like Fairbane above only crazy, christian, obsessed with knives and bayonets and USMC. Famously would demand to be stabbed by recruits going full speed against multiple assailants and was never cut.
