Type	Side Character

Location	Dogtown
DLC	Phantom Liberty

Chester Bennett is a lieutenant colonel of BARGHEST, a heap of muscle and chrome, and Kurt Hansen's right-hand man since their army days. On the battlefield he stood out for his strength and drive, but also for his lack of discipline and his cruelty. Only Hansen's protection kept him out of prison for his war crimes. After Hansen falls, Bennett wants Dogtown for himself.
