History[]
General Olsen led his forces in California to successfully knock down two Skynet radar towers in Pasadena and Riverside, with just one left in Capistrano remaining in the Southern California area to cover that territory. Terminator Salvation: From the Ashes
On May 21, 2018, Olsen oversaw the Resistance's attack on Skynet VLA and was John Connor's direct superior. General Olsen along with Connor, Barbarossa, and some of the men went down into the pit to get the information they needed while Jericho and the rest stayed topside. Olsen and his squad discovered that Skynet was making new Terminators and had taken human prisoners to Skynet Central. He then reminded Connor he was not leading the mission when he caught him looking at the data of the Terminators being made. When he lost contact with Jericho, he sent Connor to go topside to see why Jericho wasn't responding. He was killed when a booby trap was activated, causing the facility to explode.
