Hondo "Striker" MacLean was a high school history teacher by day and the M.A.S.K. team's weapons expert. He drove the Firecracker pick-up weapons platform and was accompanied by his co-pilot Buddy "Clutch" Hawkes.
When the dead began to overtake the living Hondo and Buddy went straight to Boulder Hill to reinforce its existing security. The two are still seen taking the Firecracker out on supply runs through the wastelands.
