History
Robert S. Savage was born in Albany, New York in 1924. He joined the Army during WWII, ready to fight the good fight. He’s a light infantry commander trained for air assault operations, and has survived countless battles.
As an antitank gunner in Tunisia, he earned the Silver Star after he jumped into a burning ammunition-filled halftrack, drove it away from allied soldiers and leapt to safety just before the vehicle exploded. Not long after, he shot down a German Messerschmitt Me-109 fighter that was strafing Allied troops. Sgt. Savage, who was firing from machine guns mounted on a halftrack, hit the pilot through the windshield.[1]

After the conclusion of the Second World War, General Robert Savage speaks to the newly formed United Nations, and stresses the importance of not only a world diplomatic force, but a policing force.
