Clinton Morgen is the quaternary antagonist of the 1982 film First Blood. He is a corrupt National Guard lieutenant who is allied with Will Teasle.
He was portrayed by Patrick Stack.
He was possibly married and appeared to work at or own a drug store in the town of Hope, Washington since he says to Teasle "I gotta be back at the drug store tommorrow!".
Following Rambo's escape from the Ligget County Sheriff's Department after beating up Teasle and his men in revenge for the abuse they did, Morgen was called in to lead a series of National Guard men to track Rambo down. They were able to pinpoint Rambo's current location in an abandoned mine shaft inside the forest.
Morgen orders several of his men to go in the mine and capture Rambo, but they refuse, knowing that Rambo is far too experienced in combat and will expect them. Morgan then attempts to call Rambo out to surrender while calling his fellow National Guard friend Earl for his bazooka. Despite Earl suggesting that they wait until Teasle arrives, Morgan disregards Teasle's orders and demanded Earl to fire the bazooka into the mine to kill Rambo. Earl does so, and Morgan happily declares to 'give that man a cigar'.
Unfortunately, this doesn't suit well for Teasle, who angrily berates Morgen and his men for defying his orders. Teasle then orders Morgen to search for Rambo's body, much to Morgan's frustration. Little did Morgen know that Rambo escaped the explosion.
Trivia
- Despite being the quaternary antagonist, he is never injured by Rambo, nor does he directly meet him.
