History:
(Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z HC Vol. 1 - Avengers entry - BTS) - Hector Sandrose took a job at Avengers Compound as the west coast Avengers' communications chief.

(USAgent I#1) - Unable to sleep, the heroic USAgent ventured down to the Avengers Compound communications center, where communications worker Hector Sandrose was monitoring incoming calls. When USAgent asked if there had been any calls and expressed an interest in finding a mission to occupy his time, Hector admitted that it had been unusually quiet in his sector that night. USAgent then asked if he could wait for some incoming calls alongside Hector and a somewhat nervous Hector commented that USAgent could wait wherever he wanted. As the next hour passed in silence, USAgent watched Hector work and thought about how the two of them didn't have much in common aside from a conscientious streak. Hector soon received a distress call and USAgent grabbed the communications equipment from Hector to assure the caller that he would be there to help in no time. Returning the equipment back to Hector, USAgent ordered Hector to get the caller's address and send it to him via his Avengers Communicard. Hector exclaimed "Yessir!" as the USAgent ran off to assist the female caller. A short time later, Hector found the caller's address and communicated the information over to USAgent, sending the hero into a bar on Melrose Avenue.
