Kazuhira Miller

McDonell Benedict Miller, otherwise known as Master Miller, was FOXHOUND's survival trainer during Roy Campbell's command of the unit.

Master Miller was born in the United States sixty years after his grandparents immigrated there from Japan (he is half-Japanese). He served as a survival master in SAS (Special Air Service, a special operations group, of Britain), The Green Beret Squad, US Marine boot camp, and most recently also FOXHOUND. He is also volunteered as a coach in MERC SCHOOL (Mercenary School) twice a year but since retired. When he served as a drill sergeant in the FOXHOUND, he was referred to as a "Hell Master" and draftees called him "Master Miller" with the utmost respect.

Solid Snake probably met him while in FOXHOUND's boot camp. He divorced his first wife, Nadine, and resided in Los Angeles with his daughter, Catherine, while serving as an adviser for FOXHOUND during Roy Campbell's days in the unit. After the Uprising of Zanzibar Land and Colonel Campbell's retirement, Miller retired as well and moved to Alaska. He sometimes trained the Alaskan scouts during his free time. However, three or more days before the terrorist takeover of Shadow Moses, Miller was attacked and murdered in his home.

Liquid Snake, the terrorist leader, then assumed Miller's identity and posed as him during Snake's mission on Shadow Moses Island.
