The Soldier in his early days during The 2Fort War, nicknamed "The Blue Bomber" during that time.

The Soldier is one of Heavy Weapons Guy's and Demoman's gay soldier-lovers in Team Fortress 2. He is known to be one of Mama Luigi's few weaknesses, due to excessive yelling and having an uncanny explosion fetish.

Cultural Heritage: A real American.

Arsenal

• Rocket Launcher: Fires rockets. If you're his unlucky victim it was more then likely a crit rocket.
• Shotgun: Good God how many classes have a fucking shotgun as a secondary weapon?
• Shovel: The very one which will eventually be used to bury him. In the meantime it does a great job making people to bury.

Update

• Direct Hit: Fires faster and more powerful rockets, but they have less splash damage, hence the name "Direct Hit." If you're his unlucky victim you were either in midair or a class with low health to begin with. Replaces the ROOW-KIT LAUNCHER!
• Buff Banner: Rush the fort, maggots! If you can survive long enough to fill your rage meter, you can toot your bugle, raise your flag and surrender your allies nearby will fire minicrits! Replaces the Shotgun.
• Equalizer: As you take more damage, you become faster and stronger when holding this...I don't get it either. Replaces the Shovel.
• Gunboats: Earned from winning the war against those pesky Demomen, these special armored boots are designed to reduce damage inflicted from rocketjumping and are also an essential tool in several dungeons. Replaces the Shotgun.
• Rocket Jumper: A basically useless rocket launcher that deals no damage, but it sure is great for practicing rocket jumping. Who needs jetpacks when you've got one of these babies?

Community

• Pain Train: A makeshift club made from a discarded Axtinguisher handle and an iron railroad spike, which inexplicably increases the wielder's capture rate. The Demoman can also wield this weapon. Replaces the Shovel.
• Black Box: This trusty rocket launcher originally used for blowing up tanks gives extra health for a smaller clip size. Replaces the RAW-KIT LAWNCHAIR.
• Battalion's Backup: You keep shooting him while he has this backpack, his rage builds up and when he blows his bugle, teammates are protected from crits and take less damage. Be very afraid of the almost invincible hordes he rallies. Replaces the Shotgun.

Special Note: When the Soldier wields the Black Box and Battalion's Backup plus a hat called the "Grenadier's Softcap", Engineers take note, because you'll have to work around the sentry damage resistance bonus that the combination of these items brings.

Promotion

• Frying Pan: Given to anyone who bought Left 4 Dead 2 before October 7th and anyone who already owns Left 4 Dead 2, this item is just a...frying pan, originally used for the purpose of beating zombies to death and making breakfast. Now makes breakfast and provides one of the most humiliating deaths possible! The Demoman can also use this weapon. Replaces the Shovel.

Aren't you persistent, Soldier?

World War II

Growing up in a militaristic family, as a young boy the Soldier always wanted to fight in a war one day. But after being rejected from every U.S. military branch (including the Coast Guard), the Soldier took it on himself to defend his country even if his country wouldn't let them. He personally dropped into what he thought was Nazi Germany but he ended up way off-course, deep in Soviet territory. Despite this, the Soldier learned the art of combat and went on a massive killing spree that lasted until hearing about the end of the war in the early 50s.

Vietnam and 2Fort

He desperately wanted to fight in Vietnam as well, but still the Soldier was rejected from the military branches (Even if drafting was used.) This time he went to 2Fort, Texas instead to kill some other people. He was awarded the Medal of Honor by himself and was signed as head of the General of the Blue Team. It later turned out that the Red Team had more players and more points, so the Soldier switched like a bastard to the Red Team and has been fighting on it ever since.
