A drill instructor was a member of the mercenary group Militaires Sans Frontières in the 1970s. He conducted various exercises as part of MSF's training regimen, including the teaching of CQC techniques. As expected of his position, he was loud, quick, and sharp with the trainees, sometimes sarcastically suggesting that they kill themselves immediately if they couldn't use basic enemy evasion tactics.[1] Like the other members of MSF, the instructor held great respect for the abilities of their commander, Big Boss.[2][3]
In November 1974, the instructor conducted a training exercise at the MSF's Colombian camp, where Big Boss joined the trainees in their session.
Behind the scenes[]

Instructor: Next I'll explain how to change stances. If you just stand there like an idiot in front of an enemy, you might as well kill yourselves now. - ^ Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, Kojima Productions (2010).
Instructor: Look alive, ladies! The Boss [Big Boss] is gonna join us! Show 'em how it's done, Boss! - ^ Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, Kojima Productions (2010).
Instructor: Alright... Why don't we do something special since the Boss is here. Anyone who feels like getting their ass kicked, step forward. Don't hold back, Boss.
