Billy Hawkins 'Good with his hands'.
Any of the far-flung SPECOPS folks will hang this on a person they deem worthy of respect. It is a measure of respect, acknowledgment of a person skills and even a little 'bit' of professional jealousy. Billy Hawkins had great instinctual skills with weapons and his hands. He was in the right place at the right time in Afghanistan and although he Looked inept, the God of War had placed his hand on Billy and allowed him to excel. He saved a couple of his Afghan allies and looked 'Dope' doing it. he got wounded and lost his Voice and can only speak in a whisper (Think Gunny Highway)...Once he got out of the military, he drifted into the PMC realm and his actions started to spread stories of his ability. Hopefully, we will hear More of Billy and his: "I'm NOT a DELTA guy and I'm definitely NOT a Hero." Adventures. Thanks, Mr. Pierce for this one.
