Harvey Smith was Louis McQueen Jr.'s army captain, who regularly abused his position to bully Louis. After Louis went AWOL, Harvey demanded that Louis was placed in the holding cell and made clear that he would press for a two-year custodial sentence. However, Duncan Button reported Harvey for his poor treatment of Louis. Despite Corporal Taylor Wells backing up Louis's version of events, Colonel Gerald Wright discharged Louis whilst allowing Harvey to return to his usual duties.
