Corporal Hare

When 17-year-old William Hare first saw a poster promoting service in Militech's paramilitary forces, he finally understood his purpose in life. As his impressionable eyes scanned the multi-million-dollar equipment and armored soldiers, he felt a brutal power and desire for adventure swell inside him. How could a kid who spent his whole life in the slums of Rancho Coronado resist? The promotional specialists in Militech's recruitment office certainly think so, and they're usually right. Hare enlisted and eventually rose to the rank of Corporal. He got everything he dreamed of plus more – combat military-grade cyberware, a sense of power, camaraderie and adventure. As for the latter, there are some parts he'd rather forget – especially the ones he's forbidden to talk about. After Brazil, everything changed. He lost his good health and came back to Night City a veteran, but with no hope of ever returning to active duty. That's when Hare first asked himself – had Militech taken away more than they gave him?
