Bobby

The image of Sledge from Rainbow Six: Extraction was used for Bobby.

**Robert "Bobby" Barclay, Sr.** is an UDF operative who served with the Emergency Security Extraction Team for eight years, from 2119 to 2127.

Five years after the C-E29 Incident, he was one of the operatives handpicked by UDF to serve in REACT.

## Early Life (2089-2117)

Barclay was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in the United Kingdom. He grew up with his mother, Alison, and his younger brother, Connor. His father, Stephen, was a police constable. When Barclay was 6 years old, his father was shot and killed in the line of duty, so his mother moved the family back to her hometown of Dundee, where Barclay spent the rest of his youth.

Barclay initially wanted to enlist in the police, against the wishes of his mother. He dropped out of school at age 16 to work various odd jobs to help support his family, eventually settling on a construction job.

At age 25, he married his longtime childhood sweetheart, Macie McKenna, and at age 29, she gave birth to their son; Robert Barclay, Junior.

In order to better support his growing family, he enlisted to join the United Defense Force. An assessment of his psychological profile and physical skills, which were further refined during his three years of UDF training, he was assigned to join ESET.

## ESET Operative (2118-2126)

Barclay was one of the last operatives assigned to serve under Segal, who would serve as his commanding officer for the majority of his tenure with ESET, from 2119 up to her promotion in 2122.

Owing to his extensive knowledge of construction, Barclay quickly fit into the role of Siege Specialist. His personable and friendly demeanor often set him into the role of a secondary squad leader, especially in situations that required

Over the years, Bobby grew to be considered "cursed" in a sense; any mission he was assigned to ended up facing complications. Nowhere was the so-called curse more evident than the C-E29 Incident, wherein the colony faced a 90% casualty rate, including the Colonial Director Raphael Renou and even Barclay's own younger brother, who was a resident of the colony in question. Though this was only a covert training simulation, the fact that Eli died in spite of this only further proved the "curse" was real.

## REACT Operative (2127-Present)

After the C-E29 Incident, the core members of ESET began to move away to other projects, beginning with Segal's promotion to UDF Director of Rehabilitation; a new administrative branch created to help resettlement efforts of failed colonies.

Barclay was one of the few ESET operatives who remained with the team over the next five years, eventually being promoted to the position of Lieutenant. He remained with ESET until he was approached by UDF to join the new REACT Operation. Seeing it as a chance to spend more time with his family on Earth between operations, he accepted.
