Clayton Kirby

A Man Of Honor
An infantry officer in the Great War, Clayton Kirby was decorated for valor many times and beloved by his troops. After the war, he continued to train soldiers back at the States. When World War II broke out, he requested a front line command role, despite his advanced years. Instead, the military made him a counter-offer, train and lead a new breed of soldiers, men who could stand toe to toe with the worst the Nazis could dream up -- the Extraordinaries!

Personality: Tough, unyielding, and fair are the words most often used to describe General Kirby. He has high expectations for those around him but even higher expectations for himself. He is patriotic and honorable. He is very protective of his granddaughter, Katherine ("Kitty").
