Short Biography:
Wilhelm is the third-born of a humble family of dockworkers on Wendel Mining Facility. His father, a former pilot, was renowned for his skill in combat and was told to take over as logistics supervisor for Dock 2 as he grew older - a position that both he and the rest of his family are proud of to this day.
As the years grew on, his father refused to let any of his children fly - telling them of the glory and honor in an honest day's work; how the fruits of their labors will make a better Rheinland by carrying on the legacy of past workers.
Wilhelm understood what his father said, but was too attached to the idealized glories of battle. Between shifts at the dock, he would hear pilots in the bar regale tales of battle, glory, of crimes committed against their people and of the glorious retribution that they inflicted. Young Wilhelm was awestruck by such tales - constantly bugging his father to tell him of his time as a pilot. This would more often than not result in a scolding and extra shifts in the docks - to 'remind him of his roots'.
Two decades of hard, honest work and his Father's teaching were undone when the Red Hessians declared their hostilities against the Styrian Cooperative. A furious Wilhelm was one of the first on Wendel to volunteer to fight, despite having no combat training.

The young man didn't even give his father a chance to argue before he left on the first transport to Leipheim, amongst his brothers and sisters conscripted from various sections of Wendel Mining Facility.

Why do you want join us:
To protect my brothers and sister workers, and to bring glory to the workers of the past.
Why were the Unions outlawed?:
Because the Unions were broken up after the 80-Year War, as a result of Rheinland's horrid economic situation - basically throwing all the dock workers to the wind and causing an employment crisis.
Then the riots started.
Why were the LWB outlawed?:
Farmers all across Rheinland were vying for work as foreign companies such as Synth Foods Inc. started to flood the market with cheap alternatives to Rheinland-grown food, so the farmers lobbied and fought for their jobs.
Describe, in your own words, our attitude to life:
We fight for a future where all the workers of Rheinland can provide for their families. That the fruits of production will make our nation rise once more.
