Capt. Jack McNeal

An elite special forces officer during the Gulf War, Jack McNeal racked up an impressive list of dangerous missions. He went on to join SHIELD and lead many other operations internationally, and developed a reputation is a strong leader...if not occasionally difficult to manage. When Commander Edward Castillo took over Seattle's UNCLE branch and began putting together a STRIKE team (the elite assault teams within UNCLE), he immediately thought of Jack, who he'd commanded and befriended during his own SHIELD days. Convincing McNeal to return to service in the States and transfer to UNCLE, Castillo gave him free reign to pick his own team and do things the only way he seemed to be able to...his own. McNeal is a fearless--and sarcastic--agent, and expects the best from the men under his command. His team backs up Forte regularly, and the hero team trusts him without question, as he's been side by side with them a number of times under fire. He's grown close to Forte's Tinker, has a soft spot for kids, and has a penchant for Hawaiian shirts and poker.
