'''Deacon''' was a General in the [[United States Army]] until he was replaced by a Decepticon [[facsimile construct]].

==Fiction==
===IDW Generation 1 continuity===
While snooping around the Decepticons' abandoned base in [[Oregon]], [[Verity Carlo]] discovered Deacon's body in a facsimile "seed pod". {{storylink|Infiltration issue 4|Infiltration #4}}

9 months prior, Deacon's facsimile met with Senator [[Alexander Holt|Holt]], reassuring the Senator that instability in the Gulf region is a good thing... for the Senator. [[Runabout (G1)|Runabout]] was nearby and secretly tagged the Senator as a "primary target". {{storylink|Escalation issue 2|Escalation #2}}

Deacon's facsimile later attended an emergency session of the National Security Council regarding sightings of a UFO crashing into the Gulf of Mexico. He was pulled out of the meeting by a phone call from Senator Holt. Deacon's facsimile agreed with Senator Holt that [[Alpha-Scenario]] should proceed as planned. {{storylink|Devastation issue 3|Devastation #3}}

==Notes==
*Since the events of ''[[The Transformers: Devastation|Devastation]]'', the [[IDW Generation 1 continuity|continuity]] has been taken in [[The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|new]] [[The Transformers (IDW)|directions]], so we are not likely to learn more about the mysterious Alpha-Scenario.
*In the initial appearance of Deacon's corpse, it was wearing a Navy Uniform. In a later flashback, it was wearing an Army uniform, presumably so it matched the General who was conspiring with Senator Holt.
