Elder

Pvt. Elder was a soldier in the American Army that helped Sgt. Moody and Pvt. Martin. He assisted them in their mission to travel across enemy lines to send a message for reinforcements to Allied HQ- in a civilian car. After that car was damaged beyond use, Elder showed his prowess in dubious activities by hotwiring another civilian car, while under fire. They used this car to escape and get to friendly forces. Soon, he went with Moody and Martin to Brecourt Manor. During fighting, after Moody saves a wounded American soldier, Elder is usually killed by a German soldier, or by German artillery. However, if the player is extremely careful, it is possible to save Elder. Even if he survives the assault on Brecourt Manor, Elder does not appear in the rest of the American campaign.

Elder was voiced by well-known actor Giovanni Ribisi, who is remembered for playing a medic in the famous World War II film, Saving Private Ryan.
