Overview
Alain DuBarry joined the Gendarmerie Nationale in 1990 as an officer in their computer crime division. He was instrumental in thwarting an attempt by a group of Algerian nationals to bring down the French Minitel computer network using a virus spread by telephone switching software in 1994. In 1996, he was recruited by the Groupe d'Intervention Gendarmerie Nationale (GIGN), France's elite counter-terrorist unit, as a specialist in telephone and electronic surveillance. DuBarry is an expert on computers and computer nets as well as more conventional forms of surveillance, making him a vital intelligence gathering asset. Alain DuBarry is also an ex-Rainbow operative, his expertise in the field of electronics and computers alongside his impressive combat skills earning him a place in the elite team, served as the team's computer expert. Although his role in the team was usually intelligence gathering and communications, as a veteran of GIGN's extensive combat training, he was fully qualified to participate in armed operations. Also considering the extremaly high standard of markmenship required and maintained within GIGN Alain is almost certainly an expert marksmen.
