He generally worked as one of the Wild Pack’s point operatives, less specialized than many of his teammates, but relatively competent in most situations. His abrasive attitude, made him difficult to work with, but he was a valued member of the team, eventually developing a healthy respect for his teammate Battlestar despite his racist tendencies.
