- ―Grace to B.J. upon Hauser's death.[src]
He was tasked with deploying search drones in the harbor of the Manhattan, in order to quell the endless resistance groups within the ruined city. However, due to many of his fellow colleauges being assassinated, Hauser had doubled the guard protection he had under him. But, had brought mainly infantry soldiers, and marksmen elites, in order to avoid drawing too much attention as well as keep his location secret, which was in the ruins of a hotel. His commanding officer, General Sommer also gave him the inane task of gathering lard. It is unknown whether the lard is important or whether General Sommer is too lazy to get it himself.
But in the end B.J. killed him, and checked the remains of his dead body to be sure it was him, as well as discovery of what the Nazis were now doing in Roswell.
