Alex Dukes is a former Navy SEAL turned private military contractor, which is the polite way of saying mercenary.
The PMC company he runs, Darkpool International, had a lot of controversy around it during the Iraq War. Their involvement in possible war crimes and illegal activity lead him pulling his company out of the Iraq theater, and himself moving out of the United States.
Currently he's been setting up an air force wing for the country of Buranda. They are supposed to be trying to stop the flow of drugs from neighboring countries, but really he's working with one of the generals who's taken over the drug trade, and is using the fleet of planes to move his product and threaten his competition.
