John Bradley as he appears in Conflict: Global Storm.

Sergeant John Bradley is a special forces operator and one of the main characters in the Conflict series. His primary duty is that of the team's leader, rifleman, and radioman.

Biography[]

John Bradley was born on may 15th, 1967 in Rockford, Illinois, United States. As a young man, he served in the 101st Airborne Division and later enlisted with the US Army Rangers, likely sometime in the late 1980s. In 1990, sometime before the first Persian Gulf War, he either joined or was reassigned to the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (1st SFOD-D), more commonly known as the "Delta Force."

When Iraq invaded Kuwait, Bradley, along with fellow operators, corporal Mick Connors, corporal David Jones, and the newly assigned Delta force sniper corporal Paul Foley, carried out several missions deep within Iraq to disrupt it's war effort, thus contributing to an overwhelming allied victory.

Bradley remained a United States special forces operator for more than a decade afterwards. Years later when he was thirty-nine, the old team was reformed into the newly formed ''Red team", an elite counterterrorist squad. Joined by Carrie Sherman, the team fought many missions in order to defeat the terrorist organization March 33, whom were trying to start a nuclear war between India and Pakistan.

Appearance[]

Bradley has a fit/athletic build. In Conflict: Desert Storm, Bradley's appearance was somewhat 'casual' for a special forces operator. When he was deployed to the Middle East, he wore the standard Desert Battle Dress Uniform with a matching patrol cap, a standard bag on his left thigh for an M40 field protective mask, a British-made AN/PRC-319 radio pack for long-range communication, and a pair of British sand-colored desert boots which he likely purchased privately for the deployment.

In Conflict: Desert Storm II, Bradley's appearance changed from 'casual' to that of an elite Delta operator. His gear consisted of a black Pro-Tec helmet, black tactical vest, knee pads, and black boots. Aside from these minor changes, Bradley's appearance remains mostly the same.

In Conflict: Global Terror, Bradley's appearance changes to a more stealth-like clandestine look. He still sports his trademark radio pack on his back along with a black patrol cap, thus retaining his familiar look.

Personality[]

Bradley is a serious commander that always places the mission and his men above all else. He does not break under pressure and inspires those around him. He is a great tactician and can find a way out of most situations. He is easily annoyed by Jones' and Connors' usual bickering during operations, and will often snap at them to stay focused. He also has a sharp tongue, insulting Iraqi interrogators and snapping at Foley when he asks about his battered appearance.

Trivia[]

  • In Conflict: Desert Storm and Conflict: Desert Storm II, if the British 22nd Special Air Service (SAS) squad is selected, it can be assumed Bradley is from London due to his cockney accent.
  • The unknown operator seen placing the C-4 explosive charge in the opening cutsceene for the mission Rescue shares the same model as Bradley, minus the AN/PRC-319 radio pack. This is true for both U.S. and U.K. versions of Bradley.
  • One of his replacements in Conflict: Desert Storm is named John McClean, which could be a reference to Die Hard film series protagonist John McClane.
  • One of his replacements in Conflict: Desert Storm is named William Kirby, which is the name as the protagonist in Operation Flashpoint: Red River.
  • Bradley's appearance in Conflict: Desert Storm II may have been inspired by the Delta Force operators in the film Black Hawk Down.
