Background:
Lt. Chen-Prescott drafted into the Federation Military as an officer to infantry and later the special forces of the 52nd in 0079. Later in 0079, due to superior test scores on the EFSF MS test, he was given an RX-79(g)and due to lack of paint supplies portions of factory grey would be left, however, the scheme proved advantageous on the Western American Mountian range where granite rock is abundant. As leader of the MS team, he was in charge of creating the 1st and 2nd Mobile SUIT platoon for the 52nd. The MS team earned the nickname "shock troopers" and the Spartan helmet insignia was given to the MS team after stopping the Zeon Invasion Force of North America in one of the bloodiest battles on the ground . After preventing Zeon from further advance, the 52nd new mission would be to eliminate and push back all Zeon Forces from the continent. In 0081-82, the Shock Troopers would be assigned as a special OPs MS team to hunt down all 17 Zeon MS scattered along the western part of the North America with guerilla warfare tactics. He would be the only original surviving Shock Trooper member to survive that campaign and hid his MS in the mountains. In 0083, due to his skills in hunting Zeon Remnants a new Federation branch known as the Titans would later recruit him, where he would serve as a Platoon leader for the Titans until news about a Colony gassing by the Titans caused him to defect to the AEUG. He retired after the Gryps War and continued the rest of his life as an adventurer of the American Mountains where he died. Some hikers have said to have seen his missing ground gundam patrolling the same grounds he campaigned in. Internal Affairs has denied any sightings due to lack of evidence, however, new reports of sightings still continue to this day.
