Ted Gaynor

Ted Gaynor was a private security contractor for Blackhawk Squad Protection Group. Ted cited his motive for joining the group as having a lack of respect, in comparison to being treated like a "god" in the battlefield.

Biography
Some time ago, Ted was John's commanding officer during his first tour in Afghanistan.

Ted later joined the Blackhawk Squad Protection Group. He led them in numerous robberies, unknown to the public eye. He met John again, and John being unable to believe that his former commanding officer would do something as heinous as robbery, joined the Blackhawks to monitor Ted. Ultimately, Ted revealed to John that he had taken his former sister-in-law, Carly, hostage and that he had indeed instigated the robberies. Ted was ultimately killed with an arrow shot through his chest by the Hood.

Personality
Ted was infuriated at being a bodyguard and saw it as a lack of respect having served in Afghanistan before and described it as being "treated like gods, in the battlefield". He was also arrogant, believing he could control his former friend John, even going as far as kidnapping John's former sister-in-law, Carly in an attempt to coerce John.
