Officer John Kendall is a security officer in Vault 101 in 2277.
Background
John Kendall is friendly, yet tough and no-nonsense. While he's not actively sinister, he'll follow orders without putting much thought into it. Introspection is not a trait he commonly displays. He loves being a cop and whether what he's doing is right does not worry him; he is the law.[1]
During the Lone Wanderer's tenth birthday party on July 13, 2268, Officer Kendall can be overheard talking with the Overseer in the stairway to the Upper Level. Officer Kendall is assigned by the Overseer to give the party just a few more minutes and then make sure everyone gets back to work.
Relationships
He is the husband of Mary Kendall and the father of Christine and Monica.
