Retake+α, number 2: Captain Claire Bradshaw, age 18, commander of the United States of Liberion Marine Corps' First Marine Aircraft Wing, the "Wildcats". Her callsign is Wildcat 1, her TAC name is "Bloody". Her Strikers are AV-8B Harrier Ⅱ attack units, and her standard equipment is the M16A2 light rifle with an M203 grenade launcher, the Browning highpower handgun, etc. Her familiar is a cat. Nicole Bradshaw's older sister, she has quite a bit of experience in the Carribean Sea. In the Gulf Neuroi War she experienced continuous battle off the southern coast of the peninsula and was reunited with her sister towards the end of the war. She has a gentle personality, but is predisposed into rushing headlong into danger, and has saved a number of soldiers with her proactive air support, so there wasn't a single day when the the Wildcats' emblem wasn't seen on the battlefield. She's based on Nick Bradshaw's wife Carol Bradshaw (Meg Ryan) from the movie "TOP GUN".

She's supposed to have a gentle personality but her nickname is "Bloody"... there's got to be a good story behind that. :lol:
