Parker:
[narration] The Chimeran threat began in Russia. The origin of the virus is unknown but it's effects were devastating and swift. In the nineteen thirties reports of biological experiments began leaking out of Russia. Then reports of villages destroyed overnight. Then entire cities. We feared the Russians had developed a new superweapon, the truth was far worse. The Chimera stayed sealed in Russia for over a decade. Then in nineteen fourty-nine they launched an attack that overwhelmed all of Europe in a matter of weeks. For several months we thought England was safe, but in October of nineteen fifty, the Chimera burrowed under the channel. We had prepared for them, but within three months time, the war was lost. We abandoned the cities to the Chimera and retreated to scattered military bases and outposts. The Chimera had won. On July the eleventh, nineteen fifty-one, the Americans launched an assault on the eastern coast of England. On the second wave of that assault was a sergeant named Nathan Hale. The actions of that solider have become a matter of both scrutiny and myth. What follows are the known events of his life from July eleventh to July the fourteenth, the day he was last seen. The American soldiers had no idea of what they would soon be facing. The US government had sealed off its borders in nineteen fifty. Radios and newspapers became state property. Only the highest levels of their government knew the truth. The operation was an exchange. The Americans were bringing supplies and tanks into York, we were giving them our one weapon, something we could offer that they couldn't build themselves. I was the commander of the convoy team that was to meet the soldiers. We were ambushed in Manchester on the way to the rendezvous. There was no way to warn the Americans. They were on their own in York, fighting an enemy they knew nothing about. We never learned exactly what happened there, all we know is that Nathan Hale was the sole survivor.
