Origin:

Born Franklin John Rock, the future Sgt. Rock grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He came from a family that had it´s fair share death and tragedy, in fact, he lost three fathers in his youth and many of his siblings had hard and usually short lives ahead of them. His father, Sgt. John Michael Rock died in France by snipers bullet in World War One, and he was raised by a stepfather, John Anderson. He graduated from Pennsylvania`s Hillside High School, but when John Anderson died in a cave-in at Pittsburgh steel mill, Franklin tried to support his family as a prizefighter but soon went to work for the same steel mill where his stepfather has died. While working in the mill, he met a man who became his father figure, but lost him also in a unspecified accident.
His brothers and sisters had a lot of bad luck in life. His sister Ann was committed to a mental institution, brother Eddie died in a motorcycle accident, Josh was killed when he jumped from Golden Gate Bridge while training to be a paratrooper, Larry was left a vegetable after being wounded in the Second World War and his sister Amy took care of him. His brother Bill served as a Marine in the Pacific Theater, and it is not known for sure if he survived the war.
