Line 1: The [["Mad Dog" Morgendorffer\|father]] of [[Jake Morgendorffer]] in [[Brother Grimace]]'s lexicon of stories, Sergeant Major A.H. Morgendorffer is a decorated veteran of World War II and the Korean and Vietnam Conflicts, dying one month after being placed on desk duty in July of 1976. In "[[It's All About Respect]]," [[Kyle Armalin]] recalls reading about him during basic (actually, Plebe Summer at Annapolis) and has a high level of respect for him. In "[[It's All About Respect]]," Jake tells [[Lauriel de la Ribas]] the story about how his father got his nickname: Line 17: ''"Chewing gum and duct tape. They gave him the Medal of Honor three weeks later," Jake said. "The nickname 'Mad Dog' stuck almost immediately… and then they stuck him behind a desk for the next three years - except for promotional tours.'' In "[[The One Day We Forget]]," it is shown that Jake has found some small measure of forgiveness for his father, as he takes a young [[Quinn Morgendorffer\|Quinn]] with him to a Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. At his father's grave, we see that Jake has kept his father's Medal of Honor.
