In 1955, Josef Mengele (the “Angel of Death" of Nazi Germany) purchased a 50% interest in a pharmaceutical company called Fadro Farms. Among those employed at Fadro was a young English research scientist by the name of Andrew Ericson.
The young scientist was enthralled to spend time with a man he considered to be brilliant like Dr. Mengele. Not that he approved of Mengele's methods, but the thought and concepts behind them truly piqued his interest. Through years of working side by side the two formed a close friendship--so close in fact that Andrew was given a research notebook to carry on the work after Josef became aware of a plot against his life, ultimately coming to fruition on February 7, 1979, when he "accidentally" drowned while swimming in the Atlantic Ocean.
After his time at Fadro Farms, Andrew Ericson went on to start his own company, Ericson Pharmaceuticals. The company was from its infancy heavily invested in cutting edge vaccinations and cures for now common diseases. They were also among the first to institute clinical trials of their drugs. Dr. Ericson was able to use his charisma and a promise for a cure to subject people to what amounted to his own personal experiments. Andrew remained in control of Ericson Pharmaceuticals until his only son, Eli, took the helm of the company in early 2009. Eli spent much of his childhood in the labs helping his father with the clinical trials and other experiments conducted by the company. It is believed that Andrew quietly retired back to Brazil, where he had met Mengele so many years ago.
Under Eli's direction, Ericson Pharmaceuticals was awarded several contracts by the United States for work with the military, specifically genetics and prosthetics. The company also began their own research projects on human genetic reengineering, with the stated goal of creating a soldier who would be near-impossible to kill, and with none of the emotional attachments of normal soldiers, thus giving them the ability to complete any mission assigned.
One of the loudest detractors of this research was Dr. Amy Hudson, who sat on the Board of Directors, but was not powerful enough alone to veto these things within the company. She tried several times, but was rebuffed at every turn. She finally took her plea to the United Nations and was able to to convince them that Ericson's research project, Engineered Organic Soldiers, was in fact just a cover story for Eli's own sadistic continuation of Mengele's atrocities. She detailed the use of combat casualties considered too far gone for normal medical treatment who would be told of "experimental treatments" that may or may not work. According to Dr. Hudson, these experiments included weaving experimental bulletproof fibers into the skin of the subjects as well as implanting enhanced targeting computers into their retinas, along with enhancements in the subjects' speed and dexterity.
Based on the story presented along with a few internal memos that Dr. Hudson provided, the UN asked Britain to send a small force of SAS to Ericson's facility, on a small, isolated private island to confirm the story. The SAS team met heavy resistance from Ericson's security force, and reinforcements with hazmat and anti-viral teams were sent in. None of the teams was heard from again. During the battle, satellites recorded an explosion at one of the barracks reported by Dr. Hudson to contain some of the EOS soldiers.
