Sergeant Cahnay

Sergeant Cahnay is an Autobot-allied human from the Dark of the Moon portion of the live-action film series continuity family.

Carlton A. Cahnay, codenamed Sergeant Rich Kid is the partner of the overly careful and ammo-conservative Crosshairs.

Fiction

Ask Vector Prime

Born in Manhattan, New York, Carlton Cahnay lived a comfortable life as the son of a racecar driver and a hotel heiress. The only thing he lacked were friends as his parents dragged him across the globe. What he truly liked were the experimental tanks built by HyTech, a subsidiary of his mother's company Symultech Industries. He thus joined the United States Army, fitting in well to military life. In 2007 he was stationed at Bargam Airbase when it was attacked by Decepticons; Cahnay disabled Wreckage with his quick thinking. When Cahnay was tapped for NEST, his experience with his difficult parents made him one of the few capable partners for the Autobot Crosshairs. Ask Vector Prime

Notes

• His name is a callback to a human character from The Transformers cartoon, Auggie Cahnay. The Facebook version of Ask Vector Prime would later establish that Sergeant Cahnay is the son of the live-action movie version of Auggie Cahnay and also imply that his mother is the live-action movie version of Astoria Carlton-Ritz.
• That adventure at Bargam is a reference to the events of the IDW Publishing comics, where the Decepticons first attack the base in "Planetfall" and Wreckage is EMPed by a random soldier.
