Joshua David Mackenzie is the older of two children to Matthew Mackenzie, an Irish American officer in the United States Army and Victoria Mackenzie, an English American doctor. The family resided in Savannah, Georgia where Victoria worked at Memorial University Medical Centre while his father was stationed at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah has an officer in the 1st Ranger Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment. At the age of 6, Josh became the oldest child of the two when on 26th April 1978 his sister, Elizabeth Anne Mackenzie was born in the same hospital their mother worked at. During high school, Josh played as the quarterback for the school’s football team but tragedy soon struck the family in the form of their mother being killed by a drunk driver in a car accident, which affected Josh and Elizabeth greatly to the point where Josh stepped down from the team to spend more time with his sister while their father was serving his country.
Sometime after graduating from high school, he enrolled in university but dropped out one-and-a-half credits shy of his undergraduate degree to enlist in the US Army like his father and grandfather before him. After completing basic combat training and then advanced individual training, Josh decided to become an Army Ranger and soon went onto the U.S. Army Airborne School at Fort Benning, Georgia after which he was sent to the Ranger Indoctrination Program. During this time, he asked his long-time girlfriend and high school sweetheart, Olivia Wolfe to marry him and a few months later they were married.
Upon graduation of RIP, he joined the 75th Ranger Regiment and attended and passed Ranger School, earning his Ranger Tab. As he rose up through the ranks, Josh demonstrated outstanding firearms handling and hand-to-hand/knife combat. Eventually, he attended the U.S. Army Air Assault School and later the Army Mountain Warfare School. Being promoted to the rank of Staff Sergeant, he was accepted into Officer Candidate School and afterwards went on to the Infantry Officer Basic Course. He was assigned as a platoon leader within the 3rd Ranger Battalion out of Fort Benning where he rose to the position of a company executive officer.
After another promotion, this time to the rank of Captain, he attended another course at his home base, this one being the Infantry Officer Advanced Course before returning to his Ranger unit. Together as a unit, they have participated in several top secret missions, particularly in Afghanistan and Iraq among other locations that have yet to be declassified by his commanding officers but due to spending much of his marriage on these secret missions for his country; a strain formed in his and his wife’s relationship and the pair eventually divorced. With his marriage to Olivia now non-existent, Josh continued to stay committed to the Army Rangers and his dedication and finely tuned field skills led to him receiving numerous commendations and promotions.
He is fearless, resourceful, and loyal man who is willing to risk everything to save those he cares for including his unit who he sees as a second family rather than just a squad. Josh is also awkward around children despite this fact; there is a softer and warmer side to him with his sister, Elizabeth. He can also show intense compassion and loyalty to those he doesn't even know and while a young, yet capable officer, Colonel Mackenzie has the friendship and trust of the men under his command.
He is competent in Russian, Italian and German but is capable of speaking Arabic and yet while competent at submarine lock in/lock-out procedures, is slightly claustrophobic. He is also cross trained as a medic even though his Ranger unit has its own medic.
