When he does have on his helmet it is the same orange with a yellow visor which covers his entire face. His face will not be visible if he has the helmet on. When in the Red Base, he will wear casual civvies (loose shirt, shorts) with an orange shirt Backstory: Despised by his leader Sarge, Grif has the lowest social and military rank of both teams since Reconstruction. Although Grif's laziness does create problems for the Reds, Sarge always blames him when things go wrong, regardless of Grif's (or anyone else's) actual guilt in the matter. Physically, a lifetime of smoking and always eating processed snacks has left Grif in the worst shape for a soldier. Despite having different personalities, Simmons and Grif often spend their time together, as both have similar curiosities and ideas. At some point, an alien ambush occurred on the colony Grif was stationed at. Grif only survived the alien attack due to sleeping at his post, making the aliens believe he was already dead. Prior to Blood Gulch, Grif was deployed in a simulation outpost called Danger Canyon under drill sergeant Hammer. After failing to appear on time for a training exercise, Grif encounters a frightened soldier named Simmons while attempting to cross a narrow bridge. Hammer orders them to move but the two refuse. Eventually, the two of them run across after being fired at by their Lieutenant. Because of this incident, Lt. Lieu calls the three of them into his office and, after lecturing them, sends them on a special mission to Timberland to find survivors and gather intel on the enemy. When the three arrive, Hammer attempts to move Simmons and Grif closer to the base, but the two refuse and convince Hammer to leave with them back to base. However, Hammer instead enters the base and is killed by a bomb, leaving Grif and Simmons to return to Danger Canyon and tell everyone that Hammer died a heroic death. Lieu then congratulates Simmons and Grif on their return and, by orders from Butch Flowers, transfers them to Project Freelancer, giving them a place in the Red Army and assigning them to Blood Gulch on a "special mission". In Season 1, Grif is seen conversing with Simmons regarding 'why they are here', in which Grif goes on a long, thoughtful rant, only to be shot down by Simmons' question as to why they are in the canyon. Later, they are called down by Sarge to name their new Warthog and to be informed of a new rookie joining their ranks. When Sarge leaves to receive orders from Command, Grif and Simmons meet the new rookie, Donut. Finding Donut annoying, Grif and Simmons send him off to buy "headlight fluid" and "elbow grease" at the "store". Later, Grif spots Donut with the Blue Team Flag and joins Simmons in rescuing him with the use of the Warthog. They manage to pin down Church and Tucker behind a rock, but are forced to retreat back to base when Caboose and Sheila arrive.
