Lawrence Green is Corporal Dwayne Hicks, Serial No. A27/TQ4.0.48215E9, United States Colonial Marines, the lone Marine survivor of the events at Hadley's Hope Colony on LV-426 in "Aliens", friend & M41A Pulse Rifle instructor to Flight Officer Ripley. A veteran of many combat drops, Cpl. Hicks has no love for "bug hunts" but gets the job done leading Second Squad, and keeping his Marines focused on the mission at hand. Reluctant to go into unknown situations unprepared, Hicks backs his Marines with his Motion Tracker primed, his lighter ready, and his antique, but always effective, Ithaca M37 shotgun handy for any "close encounters" when deployed.
