Henry Kissinger (1923-2031), aka "The Doctor," was the American diplomat chosen to head the diplomatic mission of the Admiral Peary as the US ambassador to Home.
The Doctor died of complications when the Admiral Peary's medical staff attempted to revive him from cold sleep. The Race requested that Sam Yeager serve in his place.
Kissinger was born in Fürth in Franconia (Bavaria) as Heinz Alfred Kissinger into a Jewish family. In 1938, fleeing Adolf Hitler's persecution, his family moved to New York City. He was studying at Harvard University when World War II began, and fought the Race's Conquest Fleet as an infantryman in the US Army.
