== Biography ==
Chad was born in 1945 in Los Angeles. He came from a wealthy family and spent most of his youth living an easy, carefree life. He was very social, attended university, did a lot of drugs, and spent much of his time surfing. When he was drafted in 1967, he was actually quite excited at first. He didn't tell anyone this as many of his friends were seriously anti war, but he had a romanticised view of what going to war would look like. He even enjoyed it for a while once he was actually in Vietnam. By the end of 1968 though, he would be thoroughly demoralised and stop caring about the whole situation. His behaviour would become negligent and he even ended up committing war crimes as morality had stopped mattering to him. He would be killed in action in 1970.
