Ronald Greer

For other uses of this name, see Greer (disambiguation)

Master Sergeant in the US Marine Corps, assigned to Icarus Base before escaping attack to the Destiny.

Greer's past is shrouded in mystery. Before the attack on the base he was facing charges from assaulting Colonel Telford. Colonel Everett Young released him from the detention wing and advised him to take his anger out on the attackers. Now aboard Destiny, he is effectively out of reach of the judicial system.

Despite his volatility, Lt. Matthew Scott places a great degree of trust in him. Though he appears to have equally befriended Tamara Johansen, she does not share in Scott's trust.

Despite Greer's altercation with Telford, Colonel Young fervently believes in the young soldier's integrity.
