Black-haired soldier

The black-haired soldier (黒髪の兵士) was a team leader (班長) in the Survey Corps. He led a team within Hange Zoë's Fourth Squad during the battle of Shiganshina District.

Appearance
He was a man of average height with long, black hair which he kept parted and swept out of his eyes. When not wearing the standard Survey Corps uniform, he could usually be seen wearing short-sleeve shirt and long, dark pants.

Personality
While serious on the battlefield, he was shown to be a very kind man, spending extra corps funds to provide meat for his comrades in celebration of their impending expedition.

Return to Shiganshina arc
The officer is seen attending a meeting between Erwin and the other Survey Corps officers to discuss the recent revelations involving Eren Yeager's father Grisha.

He later spends what little funds the Survey Corps has remaining in order to provide meat for his comrades for dinner, in celebration of their impending expedition to retake Wall Maria. However, he is left disappointed when all of the soldiers begin fighting with each other over the meat.

When the Beast Titan reveals itself and its forces, this officer accompanies Squad Levi and Squad Hange to engage the Armored Titan. After managing to seemingly take down the Armored Titan, he and his fellow squad mates are caught in the blast from Bertolt's Titan transformation and killed.
