Short

Private Short is a British soldier appearing in Call of Duty: Finest Hour. During the Second World War, Short served with Popski's Private Army and with them participated in numerous raids on German targets in Tunisia.

"Raiding the Fortress"
On 23 January 1943, the PPA engages in a raid on an unnamed Roman fortress nearby the Tunisian village of Matmata. During the attack, Corporal Harold Snyder, a cartographer with the unit, is captured and Sergeant Jack DeHart, along with Private Allen Rowe, are tasked with rescuing him. However, both men are pinned down by enemy fire; they are rescued by demolitions expert Edward Carlyle, who breaks through the Afrika Korps position and links up with the pair in an ancient watchtower. Once they have been rescued, the trio are joined by Privates David Tuey, Senn and Short, who join in the attempt to rescue Snyder.
