Rivera

Biography
Corporal Rivera is a Marine who served in Makin. He is seen when Miller dosn't follow Sullivan and Roebuck but insted goes on the platform with Denny, Snider, and Slayback at the beginning. Near the end of the platform you can see a Japanese soldier and a Marine fighting. If you took the right with Sullivan and Roebuck, Rivera would die. But taking the left gives you the chance to kill the Japanese soldier. Rivera will try to find cover but can be killed while doing this. If he lives than he'll be with the others whom are fighting the MG nest. After that and he makes it through all that and the banzai attack then he'll die anyway with Rooker and Lozano at the 2nd gunfight.

Strangly if Rivera and Lozano live through the MG nest than Denny will die for no reason like Ryan would. Rivera holds an M1 Thompson.
