History
John Clarke was born in the city of Boston and grew up in the nearby town of Lexington. His family were Roman Catholic and of Irish descent. His great-great-grandfather served in the United States Army during World War II.

As a young man, he enlisted with the US Army and was deployed to several cities across the United States to quell civil unrest caused by the Resource Wars and New Plague outbreak. Following the Chinese invasion of Alaska in the Winter of 2066, he was sent to the Anchorage front line, where he received power armor training and piloted some of the earlier models of T-45 suits into battle.

Prior to the United States' victory in 2077, Clarke was mortally wounded and awarded the Purple Heart for his bravery. He received an honorable discharge due to his injuries and returned home to Boston.
