* [[Sinister Minister]] : {{spoiler|[[Not-So-Harmless Villain|Bradford]] }} slowly morphs into this because of his gradual [[Sanity Slippage]]. {{spoiler|He was quite [[The Fundamentalist]] before as well, just not insane yet.}}
* [[Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism]] : Unabashedly cynical in its portrayal of [[The Squad]], whose members are mostly [[Humans Are BastardsJerkass|bastards]] at best and [[Ax Crazy|violent]] [[Sociopathic Soldier|psychos]] at worst. Needless to say, the image of the [[Iron Woobie|tragic]] [[Stiff Upper Lip|yet cheerful]] "Tommies" seen in British [[World War One]] propaganda [[Deconstruction|gets completely shattered]]...
* [[Sociopathic Soldier]]: Quinn.
