Bio:  At the age of 16 Slade faked his paperwork, allowing him entry into the US Army.  After serving a lengthy tour in the Middel East, then Korea, he was reassigned to Camp Washington whereupon he was promoted to the rank of Major.  While on assignment he came into contact with the lovely Captain Adeline Kane, Kane was tasked with training young soldier in new fighting techniques.  Kane was amazed at how skilled Slade was and how quickly he adapted to modern warfare tactics.  She immediately fell in love with him, and realized that he was without a doubt the most able-bodied combatant she had ever met.  She then offered to personally train him all manners of combat, specializing in guerilla warfare.

In less than a year, Slade mastered every fighting form presented to him and was soon promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Six months later, Adeline and he were married and she became pregnant with their first child.  Soon after Slade was redeployed to the Middle East.  During his time there his unit was ordered to destroy a local town.  Unable to disobey orders, they carried them out, leaving Slade sickened by what he had done.  

Upon his return to the states he was drafted into Team 7, completing a slew of black ops missions.  During this stent he was gravely injured.  Recruited from his hospital bed they offered to put him through a series of operations that would turn him into the greatest soldier known to man.  For over a year Slade remained in isolation as he was forged into the near super human that he is today, though he was released from captivity when the experiment was thought to have failed.  Only after his release did he find out that the experiements had indeed worked, granting him near super human abilities.

 Around this time, Slade received intel that informed his best friend, Wintergreen was caught in Somalia. He donned a mask and flew to Somalia to rescue Wintergreen, slaughtering all the captors. Deathstroke the Terminator was born. As his fame grew, his enemies did too. An attack targeting his house seemingly killed Joseph and Adeline.

Several years later, while on a routine mission Slade was ambushed by Possum, a long time enemy.  After escaping, Slade was attacked by a small infiltration team that managed to severely injure him due to  helicopter launching artillery on his location.  Stumbling to a safe house, he succumbed to his injuries.  After 16 days he awoke in a strange place, under guard by strange creatures.  Not only had been out for over two weeks, something had changed.  The first chance he got he look at his reflection and noticed two things right away.  One... he was young, much younger.  And two... his right eye had been reformed.  Now he wishes to know what the HELL is going on... no matter who he has to kill for the information.
