Rodger was created and born during the second world war. Sent out to the front lines to be used by new pilots. The pilots thus take the new wing of fresh LIghtnings out and are promptly spooked by a enemy wing of fighters. The new pilots panicked and tried running home, ending up crashing all of the aircraft and killing all but one. From the parts they could salvage they managed to rebuild Rodger where he then went off on his own. Due to loosing trust in humans. He gets himself twelve kills by the wars end and continues to live through today.
