Personality

Jack is a likeable fellow, but sometimes tries too hard to make friends. He enjoys time spent alone, and enjoys reading, watching old movies, and playing chess. Mancuso is an average Engineer, however he has become adapt at improvisation, and it makes his skills seem better than they truly are. Jack is bright and opinionated, with a sense of humour, but he has trouble with his self confidence, which occasionally hampers his efforts. He is occasionally sarcastic, but not disrespectful. He is especially proud of his roots in the South, and has developed a personal code that he believes embodies the spirit of the American South, even if some of his notions are influenced by historical falsehoods. While he wouldn't admit it, the rift between Jack and his father disturbs him deeply.
