Jack Verse was a man who was leaving behind the country of Africa alone. After the Fleet he was assigned to was pratically destroied, he decided to get out of dodge, as the expression went. He Decided to travel to the nearest EFF base he could find, it just so happened to be the Azores Base in the Atlantic Ocean. Once there he could take a much needed breath and proper repairs to his Gundam Mass Produced Ground Type, GMPGT for short. He couldn't shake out the events of his missions in Africa. The time they assaulted that one mine, then there was the escape from the mine, then there was the arial battle, in which due to his quick thinking, he got one of his superior officers in her Mobile Suit and himself in hi sown and watched the destruction of the Flying Dutchman from the ouytside rather than the inside, and then there was that one fateful day in africa...
ON that day, his last survival mission in Africa, that is where he himself knew the type of man he was. Jack wanted to stay and help fight off the Zeons. He even argued with yet another superior officer about comming back for the rest of them and fighting them off, but even he knew, from the sound of the orders being barked at him, that it wouldn't be possible. Jack felt useless because he couldn't be of any good use to the people he had gotten to know over the past few weeks. Even on that day his superior officers knew the type of man Jack was. They knew so much that they entrusted him with the duty of getting himself and the person in his cockpit to safety at all costs.
Ever since that day there has been a void in his being, in his ego or pride or whatever they call it. He felt personally responsible for not being a better pilot. While people might say that he is good enough to not only survive and escape Africa but to actually do all the stuff he did while with a not fully repaired gundam. Sure he might of saved his own life and the life of another pilot with his quick thinking but there was something that overlapped it.... A sense of failure.
Jack had always been hard on himself for everything. It makes him strive to be the best that he can possibly be, yet this also means when he fails at something then its weighs heavily upon him. He looks up and sees that he is almost at the Atlantic base and he gets ready for landing instructions. He whips the tears from his face, his frowning face then turned to one of seriousness as he prepares to be a solider once again.
