Biography
Millington was completely obsessed with winning the war at any cost, as well as with the local Viking myths. He was also fixated on preparing for the 'next' war with the Soviet Union despite the Soviets being allies to the British in the present, to the extent that he created a scenario where the Russians would steal the ULTIMA machine after he had sabotaged it to release a deadly nerve gas once it translated a certain word.
Millington's office on base was designed to look exactly like the German naval cypher room in Berlin, complete with Nazi paraphernalia to get into the Nazi mindset.
Millington was shot and killed by Vershinin after the mad officer accused Bates of being a traitor and prepared to murder him. (TV: The Curse of Fenric)
