Edward Hogger

"Edward Hogger, is it? I've heard good things about you."

Edward Hogger is a silent member of Captain Blazer's scouts under Lt. Richard R. Blazer and the protagonist of History Civil War: Secret Missions. He had a major participation in infiltration and destruction of Jackson, Mississippi during the Battle of Jackson. The Mississippi capital was the primary manufacturer of materials and resources for the Confederate military, and its destruction was of utmost importance for the Union. Union General Sherman sent out his army to capture Jackson, but before that a specialized group of men were tasked to get inside the city and weaken its defenses.

Hogger's history prior to this battle is unknown, but he is noted by Union generals for being an excellent shot and his ability to infiltrate enemy territory. He was one of those handpicked for the campaign. Hogger had to fight through Confederate defenders and blow up key artillery positions. His efforts led to the capture of Jackson, Mississippi. The Blazer's Scouts would continue performing missions for the Union, including an attack on Lewisburg.

Note

 * Edward Hogger is the only protagonist that was named in History Civil War: Secret Missions, leading many players to believe that he was the protagonist that fought in all missions in the game. This meant that Edward Hogger fought for the Confederates before switching sides with the Union. This can be seen in the fact that he was noted of "being a good shot" which can be traced from the mission "Sharpshooter's At Devil's Den" where players control a Confederate sniper.
