[edit] Aliens
Mark Rolston's greatest role is often considered Private Drake in James Cameron's sci-fi classic Aliens. He appeared as a tough grunt and childhood friend[citation needed] of Private Vasquez (Jenette Goldstein). Drake's backstory, which is not revealed in the film, is that he and Vasquez grew up together in a juvenile home[citation needed], hence their close attachment to one another in the film.
