Lieutenant Tony Daugherty commanded the Roughnecks A-01 Team aboard the FAS Alesia. His leadership blended calm composure with drill-sergeant toughness. As commander, Daugherty spearheaded the A-01 Team's critical rescue at Fort Casey, successfully evacuating survivors from the besieged K-12 Team. Following this mission, he joined strategy sessions aboard the Alesia concerning Major Varro's unexplained custody and later coordinated troop briefings per General Rico's orders. During the subsequent operation on the compromised starship *John A. Warden*, Daugherty's team received the crucial assignment to escort Captain Ibanez to the bridge through heavy Arachnid resistance. Daugherty actively shielded Captain Ibanez from Arachnid attacks as conditions worsened. He perished during the *John A. Warden*'s crash-landing in the French Alps. Posthumously, Arachnids used Daugherty's body as a conduit to communicate demands to Major Varro regarding Carl Jenkins. Physically, Daugherty was a Caucasian rifleman with black hair and brown eyes, holding the rank of lieutenant.
