The theories we come up are going to be blown away by the real answer. I still say it is the medic. His face being bandaged for 9 years could be refusal of skin graphs or fiction oversight where burn victims never heal right like the burned man in fallout New Vegas. It could also be deliberate to hide his identity. As for pretending to be a patient for 9 years, the diamond dogs could have the pull to forge medical documents and bribe people to keep a man on the inside plus a medic might know how to fake a condition to keep himself in the hospital. I just think the fact that him and the other masked msf soldier survived (made it to the evac helicopter at least.) is significant. What other game or movie does that happen often? Gears of War, you wear a helmet automatic death. The navy seals in MGS 2 all dead. In resident Evil games everyone in the BSAA that's not a playable character dies. These two characters defied faceless goon fate and I want to know why? If Kojima just didn't want a scene where only the main characters survive a shootout there would have one or two more that made it in the chopper.
