Nathan Taylor

Nathan is Jack's background advisory. He is leaned on by many of the group looking for either council or friendship which he gives without question. Being part of Jack's Past Taylor is more like a father figure to Jack as he constantly is seen with him. Thought Taylor is in his sixties he is in rather good shape making him both a liability and a powerful asset.

Pre Apocalypse
Taylor took care of Jack after Jack's father died. Taylor was a highly decorated officer in the United States Army with the purple heart, Metal of Valor,and many more so he was assigned to rescuing valuable assets.

Post Apocalypse
Being put feet first into combat zones crawling with Walkers he and Shawn both coordinated falling units of the Army, Air Force, Marines, National Guard, and some Navy men in defending TSU. He often went on extract missions with strike teams and was the last man off the group, that included killed in action soldiers. His tenacity was known and feared by other officers hearing his successes in Nashville but they also started to get the reports of his casualties and were astonished that he had the least amount. Taylor was given an order to abandon TSU with all of the soldiers left to fend for themselves and he quickly responded with the outlying message of "Nuts."

Realizing that his situation was destabilizing Taylor called for his forces to retreat to TSU and defend the facility. Joining his men once again nw as a fellow soldier he coordinated three belts that effectivly wrapped around the city's college and marked the buildings with his own personal design of a search sign. With his numbers increasing every day Taylor wasn't prepared for the fact that the city Zoo fell under care and the animals broke out killing squads of his men with the frenzied animals. In retaliation Taylor constracted a second fence aroudn the facility and flowed enough amps through the first fence to stop an elephant in it's tracks.

Now with his numbers stabilizing at a terrifying 500 soldiers he began to reach out on military channels trying to contact anyone that would join his unit. One of the first to respond to his calls was Jack Thompson a Coropral stationed out in Hays. Finding it a pleasure to see him at his gates a week later Taylor introduced them to Kitty, Allen, and his only Ranger left Gustavo.
