Your days amongst the Army Rangers in Normandy bred a steel resolve in both your nerves and your mind. When you returned to the states after the war, you couldn't seem to settle into a single job for longer than a few days. After all the men you saw killed or were killed at the pull of your own trigger, it was difficult to listen to some hack tell you what to do and when to do it. You started drinking pretty heavily to cope with the rough dreams and tougher memories, and that didn't help either.

Before long, a friend offered you a spot in his private investigations firm. He was an old war buddy and a decent guy who was trying to give you a fair break. You took him up on that offer, and though the cases were usually boring insurance fraud or cheating spouse types, you found you had a real knack for seeing them through.

You were promoted to full parter in 1948, got your own office, and a nice little hike in pay. You started weaing double breasted suits and expensive fedoras, cut back a bit on the drinking, and found a bit of peace in helping others solve their problems. The recompense didn't hurt either, as your rate was always high enough to keep you going.

It wasn't until that blonde broad stepped into your office that you started second-guessing yourself.
