******************************************************************************
Growing up in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Nicholas Harrison knew that he wanted to be either a professional hockey player or a soldier. In his 50 years of life so far, he has had the chance to do both. Nick was always a sharp, intelligent person with a presence that people didn’t mind following. Nick wasn’t always fond of this responsibility, but he shouldered it all the same. On the ice, Nick primarily acted as an “enforcer” (a player whose job was to ensure that no opposing players who decided to take a big dirty hit on a teammate got away with it). When he turned 18, Harrison enlisted in the Canadian Army and served with the 1st Battalion of the Royal Canadian Regiment. He would serve in the First Gulf War and Bosnia before volunteering for a new special operations unit being formed in 1993. This unit was an elite special operations unit known as Joint Task Force 2. Throughout the 1990s and The Global War on Terror, Harrison would keep busy on hostage rescues, kill/capture missions and long range reconnaissance missions to Iraq, Afghanistan and wherever else he and his team would be called. In the early 2010s, Harrison (who was a Captain at the time) was on patrol near the Afghanistan/Pakistan border when the vehicle he was riding in was hit by a roadside bomb. The blast inflicted severe damage to his legs. Believing that he would never walk again, The Canadian Army promoted Harrison to Major, awarded him The Victoria Cross (Canada’s highest military commendation) and honorably discharged. After nearly two years of grueling rehabilitation and training, Harrison was back in fighting shape and soon after hired by multi-national PMC Grey Sword International.
