Jack Morrison grew up in rural Indiana . the young Morrison has been described in many different ways . he was a rambunctious youth . a humble , salt-of-the-earth farmer's son . but those asked all agree that Morrison was never destined to live out his days in the land of rolling plains and deep blue skies .

at eighteen , at the earliest opportunity , Morrison packed his bags and joined the military in response to the ‘ Omnic Crisis ’ breaking out across America . he had planned to serve a brief stint in the armed forces and then return home to the family farm , but his work ethic and courage caught the eye of the military brass . before long , he earned a coveted position in the government's controversial and still-classified ( but widely acknowledged ) “ soldier enhancement program . ” military scientists shaped Morrison and other inductees into the perfect soldiers , blessed with superhuman speed , strength , and agility .

Morrison and his fellow augmented soldiers would soon put their abilities to use as the United States was devastated by the conflict . as governments tried and failed to neutralize the omnics , the United Nations was busy forming an international task force called overwatch . this small, experimental group would bring together the best and brightest from around the world to wage asymmetrical warfare against the robots . overwatch's short list of prospective agents included two members of the soldier enhancement program: Morrison and Gabriel Reyes , a senior officer . Reyes and Morrison became fast friends , despite their different backgrounds , and decided to join Overwatch together . leadership of overwatch fell to Reyes , but Morrison would have a greater impact on the group in the long term . he brought out the best in the people around him and helped mold overwatch's diverse ( and sometimes conflicting ) agents into a cohesive fighting force . in unity , they found the strength to defeat the robots and end the ‘ Omnic Crisis . ’

the UN rewarded Morrison for his contributions by making him overwatch's first official commander . Reyes was passed over in the process . after the ‘ Omnic Crisis ’ , overwatch experienced a meteoric rise in prominence . new funding and resources gave the now-public organization far-reaching global influence . the world celebrated overwatch's agents as heroes , but none more so than Morrison . he became the face of overwatch , a symbol of hope and promise , from the cobblestone streets of King's Row to the sweltering night markets of Bangkok . Morrison envisioned a bright new future for humanity . under his leadership , overwatch served as a global peacekeeping force and an engine for innovation , making advances in scientific fields as varied as space exploration and medical research . but even as overwatch grew in power , Morrison stayed dedicated to the people around him . he trained new agents , instilling in them overwatch's noble goals and ideals . at some point he was stationed at the watchpoint: Gibraltar .
