Charles "Chuck" Oswald

Charles Alasdair Oswald (May 29, 1917 – Unknown), was a Canadian-born American politician who served as the Supreme Chief of ORRA and eventually President of the New United States of America. Oswald entered office towards the end of Operation Manifest Climax, and the majority of his foreign policy work as president initially concerned relations with the I.P.R.R. and Empire of Europa, as well as Operation Endurng Climax. Domestically, Oswald was best known for his ushering in of the "Pinnacle Future", and his loosening of social norms prominent under his father-in-law and predecessor, Joseph Steele.

== Early Life ==
Charles Oswald was one of two sons of Joe Oswald (née Joeseph Kennedy) and his wife Rose, Irish Canadians who passed themselves off as Scottish Presbyterians, for them to survive after the Republican Union's conquest of Canada. Charles was a sickly child and initially had a poor relationship with his father, who preferred his namesake son. Because of his weak nature, for a year he was committed to the Featherston Memorial Mediplex Sanitarium Ward where he received electro shock therapy by Chief Physician Dr. Israel "Put-Put" Putnam. He hated the experience and Doctor "Put-Put" especially. After the rehabilitation, Charles murdered his brother, Joesph Oswald Jr., and joined the navy, against his father's wishes. Despite his love of stories and Zap Zephyr comics - Oswald initially wished to major in creative writing - his father cajoled him into serving in the Phoenix Oil Company, which Oswald only escaped by joining the navy. 
== Military Service ==
While his father endeavored to arrange a marriage between him and Wyetta Arkham Custer-Steele, Oswald decided to enter into the naval service. Though his father wished him to serve in the North Atlantic, he was able to enlist in a much more active squadron in the Caribbean instead. While there, he befriended Commander Hubbard. The new equilibrium was shattered when Eduist Brazilian ships ambushed Hubbard's vessel off the coast of Colombia, near Los Cordobas in 1937. The ship was destroyed and most of the crew perished, despite Oswald's best efforts. He and Hubbard barely survived. This led to Oswald being feted as a military hero; after his rescue, he returned to the Republican Union, and entered politics, embarrassing ORRA Supreme Chief George Patton at a feast held to celebrate his return to safety and his fiancé Wyetta. 
== Supreme Chief of ORRA ==
In the good graces of the Steele family and allied with Ryan Hendrick, Oswald began to increase his power base. With Steele increasingly paranoid and seeking to dispose of possible rivals, he resolved to use the Worm Cultists to dam the Congo River and then dispose of them. As part of this scheme, he ordered Oswald and Hendrick to execute Patton, after which he made Oswald the new Supreme Chief of ORRA. As Supreme Chief, Oswald oversaw the purge of Wormists, and suspected or alleged Wormists from the American government. He increasingly became the closest thing Steele had to a confidante, though even he was shocked to learn of the president's Tuberculosis. Though Oswald thought Steele's beliefs about his son being the Antichrist were complete nonsense, he agreed to murder his potential rival. This solidified the bond between father and future son-in-law, setting the stage for Oswald's ascension. Oswald married Wyetta on March 15, 1943 and had his first argument with Johnny Gamble. Five days after the marriage, he ordered ORRA agents to murder Dr. Putnam and Dr. Parson Davis for revenge in making him experience his terrible "rehabilitation" as a child.
