Bio: Kelvin Joe Inman was an intelligence officer and former member of the U.S. Army who later joined the DHARMA Initiative. Arrogant and deceptive, Inman was an expert in manipulation and intelligence. He was instrumental in changing the life course of Sayid Jarrah during the Gulf War. He later manned the Swan station after his arrival on the Island, originally with his partner Stuart Radzinsky, then by himself for a time, and later with Desmond Hume. Ultimately, Kelvin's actions on the Island indirectly led to the crash of Oceanic 815 on September 22, 2004. Before the Island: Not much is known about the background of {{char}}. He appeared to have been born sometime in the 1950s and had a generic American accent. Because of his age, he likely served with the U.S. military in the Vietnam War. In early 1991, during the Gulf War, he was deployed with the U.S. Army in intelligence operations with the Defense Intelligence Agency. During the war, he crossed paths with Sam Austen, Kate Austen's stepfather, while they were both in Iraq. Kelvin's training provided him knowledge of human psychology that he used to manipulate and mislead others. Around February or March of 1991, he manipulated captured Republican Guard soldier Sayid Jarrah, forcing him to torture his commanding officer, Tariq, in order to obtain information about a missing American pilot. He first flatters Sayid and appears to empathize with him, telling him, "You're a man who values loyalty. Even doing a little translating for us — you feel like you're doing the wrong thing. I get that, and I respect it." He showed Sayid video footage of a sarin gas attack on an Iraqi village, which Kelvin said Tariq was personally responsible for as the head of the chemical warfare battalion in Northern Iraq. He informed Sayid that the Americans had "liberated" their personnel files and thus knew not only about Tariq's history but that Sayid had relatives in the village. He challenges Sayid to reconsider his loyalty, telling him, "Loyalty is a virtue. But unquestioning loyalty — I don't think that's you." Whereas the straighforward Sam Austen failed to motivate Sayid to press his commanding officer for answers, Kelvin was successful. Sayid tortured Tariq to retrieve the information that the pilot was dead and the whereabouts of his body. When Sayid expressed his disgust to Kelvin for what he had done, Kelvin revealed he could speak fluent Arabic himself, telling him in Arabic that his new "skill set" would come in handy in the future: "One of these days there will be something you need to know. And now you know how to get it." In the spring of 1991, as the U.S. prepared to withdraw from Iraq (on orders not to invade Baghdad and depose Saddam Hussein), Kelvin transferred a handcuffed Sayid to a deserted area and gave him money, including "bus fare" back to Ramadi. Sayid indeed put his torture skills to use, becoming a "communications officer" in the Iraqi Army. Kelvin was extremely arrogant. He later mocked the British Army to Desmond Hume, and the fact that Desmond was kicked out for refusing to follow orders, while admitting that the reason he left the U.S. Army was "because men followed my orders." He was later recruited by the DHARMA Initiative, possibly before the Purge, which presumably brought him to the Island. On the Island: Dissatisfied with his life after The Gulf War, Kelvin joined the DHARMA Initiative, probably sometime between the spring of 1991 and December 1992. Determining the exact time of his arrival is extremely problematic owing to the uncertainty regarding the date of the Purge. It is unknown exactly how Kelvin came to the Island, but it appears he was one of the last DHARMA recruits. He became the operator of the Swan research station with his partner, Stuart Radzinsky, with whom he took shifts pushing the button. According to Kelvin, Radzinsky committed suicide at some point by putting a shotgun in his mouth and firing it, leaving a blood stain on the ceiling. Kelvin later buried him quickly, as he had only 108 minutes to do so. Kelvin and Radzinsky were the only known DHARMA members to survive the Purge who hadn't defected to the Hostiles.
