Punished "Venom" Snake Husbando

Punished "Venom" Snake, also known as Big Boss, Ahab, V, or Big Boss' phantom, was a combat medic for Militaires Sans Frontières (MSF), who would later become the mercenary commander of Diamond Dogs and Outer Heaven as one of Big Boss' most trusted lieutenants. During his time as a medic, Venom Snake saved Big Boss' life during the destruction of MSF in 1975 by shielding him from an oncoming explosion, losing his left arm and the use of his right eye in the process. Despite his sacrifice, Big Boss fell into a coma. Venom Snake was then placed into an artificially induced coma, undergoing hypnotherapy and plastic surgery so that he could protect Big Boss by acting as a body double. After awakening from his coma in 1984, Venom Snake assumed the identity of Big Boss. He was soon given command over the mercenary unit Diamond Dogs, which had been founded by Kazuhira Miller as a successor to MSF. While in charge, he rebuilt Mother Base and expanded Diamond Dogs. Venom Snake succeeded in defeating the XOF unit, who had destroyed MSF nine years earlier, and took vengeance on its leader, Skull Face. Venom Snake went on to command the military fortress Outer Heaven while the real Big Boss returned to FOXHOUND. In 1995, Venom Snake was killed by Solid Snake, in an operation commanded by the original Big Boss.
