Incensed as any other red-blooded American over Pearl Harbor, he tried to enlist, only to be rejected as a "2A" designation... a civilian too critical to the war effort in civilian life.Nick's career as a researcher involved studies into neurotransmitters, especially acetylcholine and sleep deprivation, and how chemical changes occur in men - fighting men especially - who spent too much time in the field under combat conditions. Though Nick's function on the research team was as a medical doctor, he was deemed an integral part of the entire operation.Invited to a mysterious briefing at the still-under-construction Pentagon*, Nick was waylaid by Nazi Fifth Columnists. The entire thing was a trap! Before the spies could get ahold of his drug and chemical samples, Nick knew he had to destroy them to keep them from falling into enemy hands. Thinking quickly, Dr. Thimes drank the entire batch!The odd chemistry of a half-dozen different chemicals reacted oddly, increasing Nick's reaction time immensely. Using his incredible superspeed, he knocked out all the Nazi agents with his bare fists and called the M.P.'s. When the War Department learned of Nick's newfound abilities, they changed his draft status and now he serves as Minuteman.Minuteman wears a facsimile Revolutionary War outfit in a subdued red, white and blue motif, with a black domino mask. The cloth is made from near-bulletproof fibers. While the War Department originally had armed Minuteman with a rifle (stylized to look like a musket with bayonet), they soon found it wasn't capable of withstanding the amount of energy his superhuman reflexes were putting into it. As a near-disastrous side-effect, Nick discovered his incredible speed allowed him to throw parts of the broken rifle as fast as the original rifle had fired bullets. Now he carries a 'powderhorn' loaded down with sturdy ball-bearings to use as impromptu weapons.Notes: - Power Attack is only for melee, not ranged (concept/balance flaw).- Immunity to Poison is due to an increase metabolism.- No 'rapid strike' because his mach-1 punch is already a flurry of blows. Same for Rapid Shot.- *The Pentagon won't be completed (in our timeline) until Jan 1, 1943.</blockquote>
