Well, this is taking place in the early-mid 1980s from what it looks like, so we're getting VERY close to the MSX2 Metal Gear games' timelines. It would be an ample time for Kojima to begin connecting the different characters that would eventually show up on MGS1, 2, and 4, since LOADS of them had a connection to Big Boss in one way or another. Just a thought to keep in mind while speculating.

Maybe we can dig up characters in the series that had said they led an insurrection against BB or were saved by BB, etc. and then look at the possibilities of who this guy might be.
