History

History

Samuel Vincent was an enlisted U.S. Army Ranger at the time of the Soltan Star Empire's invasion of Earth in the year 2000.  When the Soltans invaded Boston, they quickly took it over, making it a bastion for spearheading attacks all across new England.  Vincent's division was practically decimated in the first days of the invasion, leaving him only a handful of Rangers and no outside support.  Using everything he had, he worked with the gangs of Boston to form a resistance militia against the Soltans, performing hit and run attacks on Soltan camps and vital equipment. As a result of word getting out about Vincent's militia actions and victories, the aged Major Invader, hero and leader of the the World War II team known as the Allied Fighters, threw together a team of green recruits and went into action to kick the Soltans out of New York, Boston and New England.  Sadly, in the battle for Boston, Major Invader lost nearly all of his Allied Fighters, however, Sam Vincent was able to light off a thermobaric bomb that decimated nearly all of the remaining Soltans in Boston.  After the Soltans were defeated in Boston, Vincent took charge of the city until a properly equipped military division was able to eventually cover for them.

 

Over the next few months after the Battle of Boston, Vincent and his militia continued to pound at the Soltans relentlessly across the United States, using aggressive tactics and bold engagements.  As such, his and the militia's efforts paid off, along with several other victorious battles from military, superhero and even super-villain encounters, causing the Soltans to retreat from North America in July of 2000. When the Soltans were finally routed in August of that same year, Vincent and his militia were hailed as national heroes.  Vincent himself earned the Congressional Medal of Honor for his actions.

​

After the invasion, Vincent was promoted to the rank of Major before he finally decided to retire and start a new life with his new fiancee, Cheryl Swanson.  As fate would have it, his timing was too late.

​

Major Invader had survived the Soltan Invasion of 2000 and remembered Vincent's capabilities and leadership.  Knowing that age was creeping up on him faster than he could hold it back, Major Invader recently contacted Vincent and after several one-on-one meetings, enticing Vincent to consider joining his new band of Allied Fighters. Vincent at the time was already an integral part of GUARD with the Terraguardians team.  Initially, Vincent was reluctant to join simply due to the fact he wanted to start a family and a new life, but after discussion it with his fiancee Cheryl, they both agreed it was the best thing to do.  A month later, Sam placed himself as an Auxiliary member of the Terraguardians (call him when things are really bad) thus allowing him and Cheryl to finally marry.  After the honeymoon, Sam went to work for Major Invader as the Allied Fighter's Deputy Commander shortly thereafter.

 

Vincent quickly learned that a majority of the new Allied Fighters had little to no training in working as a team and knowing how to perform even the most basic of tactics and military operations.  He his since became the Allied Fighter's drill instructor and has since been whipping the new Allied Fighters into shape and teaching them to fight as an effective team. 

 

Even during the hectic long hours of team training and simulations, Sam and Cheryl's love for one another is strong; they are as star-crossed with each other as they were the first time their eyes saw each other.  As far as everyone else who knows the couple are concerned, if there was ever a question of where 'true love' existed in the world, it would definitely be between these two.

​

Today, Vincent, code-named as "Valor", trains the Allied Fighters primary squad and is the group's Deputy Commander.  He still aids the Terraguardians as needed and misses his team there. As far as Major Invader is concerned, he trusts no other man to lead the Allied Fighters...no other at all.
