A few days have passed since the battle at New York. Many marines have lost their life in the battle along with Alex's brother sam. The funeral was held at Arlington Cemetery. Many marines including Sergeant Mercer were giving their respects to Samuel.

Alex was there as he placed the flowers and paid his respects. Ever since Alex lost his right arm in the battle, he's been discharged.

Alex was silent as Saul continued speaking to him.

Saul: But Alex, I'm here to give you a second chance.

Mercer: Mr. Matthews. Alex has been discharged due to his injuries and-

Saul: I am aware of his injuries. At Atlas, we have prosthetics that are twenty years beyond anything the military could offer you. Your father told me what kind of soldier you were. You deserve to fight for a military that's as effective as you are.
