The Enforcer Sergeant (sometimes called Feral's Sergeant or simply the Sergeant) is an able-bodied and loyal Enforcer officer whose real name is never revealed. He appears in the animated television series SWAT Kats: The Radical Squadron. The Sergeant is completely loyal to Commander Feral and always follows his orders without question. A cat of few words, the stern Sergeant normally says nothing more than, "Yes, sir!" in response to Feral's commands. He first appeared in the episode The Pastmaster Always Rings Twice, where he was voiced by Ed Gilbert and attempted to arrest the Pastmaster as he came out of the Megakat City Museum of History with the Tome of Time, and was almost stepped on by a Megasaurus Rex for his troubles. For most of the first season until Enter the Madkat the Sergeant's voice was done by Gilbert, until Jim Cummings took over the role for the remainder of the series.
The Sergeant's first chronological appearance was in The Origin of Dr. Viper when he assisted Feral in trying to solve the mystery of the missing body of Dr. Elrod Purvis (it was later revealed that Purvis had been revived as the mutant Dr. Viper). He was at Feral's side during the siege of the Megakat Tower in Destructive Nature, and when Dark Kat and the Metallikats teamed up with Dr. Viper in Katastrophe, he played chicken with the Metallikat Express in his tank and lost. He bailed out as the Metallikats' armored hovercraft slammed into the tank and knocked it over. In Enter the Madkat, when Feral was captured by Madkat and Lt. Commander Steele took over as Commander of the Enforcers, the Sergeant grudgingly followed Steele's orders but often openly criticized his poor leadership skills.
During Mutilor's attempt to steal all of Megakat City's water in When Strikes Mutilor, the Sergeant was dispatched to personally look for the missing Felina Feral, although he only found her crashed jet and bazooka. Since then the Sergeant has played only minor roles in the Enforcers' efforts to protect Megakat City, all but replaced by Lt. Feral as Commander Feral's most trusted aide.
[edit] Trivia
For unknown reasons, in the episodes Enter the Madkat and Katastrophe the Sergeant looks different than he does in all previous and subsequent appearances, with a different uniform and face, although there is nothing to indicate it isn't meant to be the same character.
