Nick Myer was an explosives expert and leader of the Nitroglycerin Division at FOXHOUND. A former United States Marine, Myer served as the team's firearms and explosives expert. During Operation 747, Myer attempted to infiltrate the main enemy complex, although he ended up captured. He also harbored some suspicions of John Turner, and had a prisoner warn Lt. Solid Snake to be wary around him. Myer was later mortally wounded and was dying when Snake found him. With his dying words, he revealed that Jennifer, their double agent, had her cover compromised, and that Big Boss was hooked up to a life support system, and that the only way to defeat him was to lure him out of the command room.
