Mercury
Summary
Frequently known as Merc, or Merc-kun in the Japanese adaptation, this character serves as the platoon's messenger dog. He possesses a notorious habit of biting people on the head, an action that resulted in his demotion from Corporal to Courier Private First Class after he bit an officer in Episode 1. This specific incident was triggered by the team's collective reaction to the deeply unpleasant Major Connery. Physically resembling a Labrador Retriever, Merc is characterized by his speed, reliability, and high sensitivity to the emotions of his teammates. Although he typically appears as a friendly companion to the members of Section III, he transforms into what civilians term a military hound when circumstances demand it, demonstrating the capability to disarm his opponents.
