Jidan Nickard (ジダン・ニッカード Jidan Nikkādo?)[1] is a character that appears in Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team.

History[]

He is the commander of a heavy supply company in the Southeast Asia area of the Earth Federation Forces. He is a senior citizen, but full of vitality, and has a penchant for alcohol, women, and gambling. He also uses his position as commander of a supply company to divert supplies to his soldiers. He is a greedy man, but also a compassionate one, and he appreciates Shiro Amada's clumsy attempts to live uprightly behind the scenes. He was also fond of Maria, who ran a hotel in a village of lakes in the W-208 area, and he provided her with supplies of all kinds.

In the novel version, he secretly procures core boosters for the 08 Platoon just before the battle for Lhasa Base. He also appears in the manga "Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team U.C.0079 + α", but does not play a notable role.
