Private Bravo

Bravo in WWI: TWR

Private Bravo appears as a secondary character in *World War I: Trench Warfare Remake*. Bravo is a 13 year old boy who lied about his age in order to join the army upon the U.S. declaration of war in 1917. Bravo serves under the command of Captain Indiana and Lieutenant Bushido, and he is close friends with his fellow platoon members Sergeant Miller, Corporal Krakowski, and Private Wilson. In order to sound older, Bravo puts on a deeper voice with bravado in order to blend in with the rest of the men. Bravo was somehow selected to be a light machine gunner, a job he takes seriously as he likes to lay down near constant volleys of fire against the enemy.

## In WWI: TWR

Bravo appears in the intro scene of the video digging a trench along with Cpl. Krakowski and Sgt. Miller. He is later seen with the pickaxe used here as he converses with his comrades asking about and giving his opinion towards the various weapons used on the Western Front. When a grenade is suddenly thrown next to him, he shows little care as he waits for each man to give his 2 cents before deciding to throw the grenade back over the trench towards the Germans. In this act he manages to startle the Germans as well as singe their behinds.

Soon after Bravo appears again as Lt. Bushido calls roll. Bushido asks the boy how old he is, to which Bravo replies 18. This is clearly false. After Bushido briefs the men that they are about to perform a trench raid, Bravo decides to state that he is actually a child, hoping he would be spared having to go over the top. Bushido did not process this and Bravo attacked with the rest of the men. His battle cry of "Woah Mama!" can be heard as he jumps over the trench and charges the enemy. He lays down suppressing fire on the Germans, keeping most of his platoon alive, and when retreating and runs past the injured Private Wilson as he does not quite have the strength to carry a grown man. When back in the trench, Bravo continues to fire his Lewis gun to deter any Germans from attempting a counter attack.

When the idea to push the trench across No Man's Land occurs, Bravo joins in with the rest of the men. He is the first to realize though how stupid this is so he stops and says "Hey Captain this isn't gonna work". The task is then called off and Bravo heads off with the rest of the enlisted men. Following the death of Cpt. Indiana which caused Lt. Bushido to entire a manic state, Bravo runs up with the rest of the men to inform the Lt. that they've got to get moving. When attacking Bravo quickly enters hand to hand combat with a small German. In the scrap, Bravo is stabbed with the spike of a pickelhaube, wounding him. This wound seems to not effect him soon afterwards as after the clock strikes 11:00, he appears in good health when he joins the good game line.

## Trivia

- Private Bravo is inspired off the cartoon character Johnny Bravo. This occurred because Jack and Benny watched a funny Johnny Bravo clip not long before filming leading to Benny acting like his new idol.

- The Lewis gun Bravo uses was also utilized by Benny during Fallout I when he was the Highwayman.
