A young honor student and gang lieutenant drafted into Vietnam where he becomes a sniper, occasionally providing support for The Hotline and the Dead Eagles, an early predecessor to Unit 13. He is severely wounded on his third tour confining him to a wheelchair. He stays behind after the war, moving through Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, accompanied by three Green Beret trained Montagnard women, drinking and gambling the nights away.

A yakuza group attempts to force the women into prostitution. Strong uses his sniper training to wipe out half the gang in the ensuing chaos costs the lives of one of his companions. After severely halting the Yakuza's influx and seemingly killing the gang's oyuban he returns to the states. He makes contact with Lonnie Parsons through Shoe and becomes one of their most feared assets.
