Biography[]
Major General Homer Phillips was a high ranking officer in U.S. Army Intelligence. He was the mission coordinator who recruited Alan "Dutch" Schaefer's mercenary team, at the request of CIA agent George Dillon, for a mission in the Republic of Val Verde in 1987 to rout out rebels and their soviet advisors and, if possible, to find out what happened to a previous team lead by Jim Hopper, who disappeared. Since they knew he didn´t want this sort of missions, they lured him into it with a fake story.
Following the mission's disastrous encounter with the Predator, Phillips was aboard the helicopter that rescued Dutch from the jungle after being informed by Anna about what was going on.
He later witnessed from the helicopter the small nuclear explosion caused by the Predator in a last attempt to kill Dutch, a feat not possible with human technology and which helped him find Schaefer.
Afte that he evacuated Schaefer from the place, still in shock about what he had witnessed. The nuclear event clearly and unmistakably made Anna's and later Dutch's report about what happened credible in his eyes and in the eyes of the U.S. government.
