Thomas in his pilot uniform.
Thomas is an American war pilot. He was issued at last moments of the Second World War to get important reconnaissance photos that Washington needed; unfortunately, he became one of the NKVD's targets and, after few attempts, he was captured for torture. Later on, Karl Fairburne saved Thomas from an NKVD transport convoy, since he was the only one who could fly Dr. Lohmann from Berlin.
Background[]
Thomas being escorted by the NKVD following his capture.
Not much is known about Thomas, and the game never tells anything detailed about him until the last chapter of the game. He first appears in Katyusha level, where he is critically injured and, as German Resistance assists you, you have to take him to safety; later on, at last chapter of the game, he gets captured by the NKVD for torture and interrogation, and the player is tasked to intercept the enemy convoy at any cost to save the pilot. The pilot is equipped with a P38 silenced pistol, and is the only character in the game that can pick up weapons from fallen enemies; he's also one of the two characters that the player can issue commands to. If Thomas gets killed, the mission will fail.
Thomas has a brother named Stephan, who was also taken hostage by the NKVD. Thomas and Stephan seem to be very close: Thomas refuses to leave Berlin unless Fairburne saves Stephan from captivity.
Appearance[]
Thomas in the cockpit of a plane.
Thomas appears in a pilot suit automatically equipped with a parachute and a P38 silenced pistol. When he is being transported by the NKVD, he is dressed in military camo clothes without any protection and lacks the P38.
Thomas' age is unknown, but he appears to be in his mid-30s.
Trivia[]
Thomas's "pilot suit" model features a different face than his "camo clothes" model.
An incredibly odd thing occurs in the mission "Journey to Tempelhof" as both Thomas in his military camo (presumably provided by the Resistance) and his pilot suit are visible at once in the truck somehow.
The pilot character model was one of the original concepts made for the game.
