General D. MacArtair, General of the Army, Ret'd
PROFILE: It is not known when the General first came to the Island. There is a photograph of him wading ashore in knee-deep water, a burning aircraft slowly sinking behind him. He frequently appears wearing a well-worn khaki uniform devoid of medals, aviator glasses, and a sheepskin flying jacket. When on a mission, he is occasionally driven in a rusted-out jeep, pulled by midgets. Zombie bodyguards with tommy-guns accompany him when accepting surrenders from noble enemies. He has also been known to wander through the jungle in a pink silk robe with a dragon emblazoned on the back, munching a head of lettuce. His manner of speech is a bit Victorian, erring on the side of empurpled rhetoric. The fact that he closely resembles another well-known general from the pages of history is a matter he refuses to discuss, often lighting his corncob pipe and striding briskly away.
He is a huge fan of the West Point Black Knights, and frequently dashes off missives to the coaches about how to improve their offensive strategy.
