The Ace Visconti theory
This is a theory on Ace and his background.
Before we go in this is something fun i made up and most importantly is my THEROY.
Behavior keeps survivors and killers backgrounds vague. They now have the archives to explain it but before the archive we only had three ways we can learn more about the character. The first one was their description(obliviously), perks and last but not least outfits. We are going to focus on the outfits. The outfits of characters DO tell some sort of story or event the survivor went through and a insight of WHEN they were alive. For example lets look at David king. His outfits are not modern. They are 80's to early 90's. Checkered pants, leather jackets, flat caps. David has greaser like looks and outfits of that time. Just by his outfits alone we have knowledge about him. David is from the 80's and 90's. Now back to Ace. What we know from his perks and description is Ace is a gambling addict. We know when and where his addiction started Argentina. Now lets talk about his outfits. All of his outfits CAN be considered as something you can wear in the 50's. Proof of this is his default outfit and his dlc outfits. The ones are very 50's vibes are Mover, Shaker,Hey Ladies, Too Sexy(this one references a 1991 song called Im to sexy by Right said fred. This might just be a easter egg or proof he wasnt alive in the 1950's) back to the list, the tomcat, high roller, golden nugget, Ace Vegas and the most important one Flying Ace. Flying Ace is where this theory comes from. The outfit is called War is Hell. If Behavior is following their pattern of outfits representing the time of which said survivor has came from and event they went through then we know that Ace was in a war. The only war that Ace could of been a part of is if he was from the 1950-1960's was WW2. This is where the theory part takes place. Ace was born either during or a little bit after WW1, Ace in his youth had to scam and gamble to survive in Argentina(I've done research into Argentina before ww2 they were extremely poor and alot of corruption and people suffered. Ace prob needed alot of money to be able to get into America), Ace eventually made it to the USA before ww2, this part is kinda unknown what Ace did next(I think he went straight to Vegas and started gambling but he wears a wedding ring so he might of gotten married at some point). Then WW2 happened. Ace joined and became a piolet. This part can be considered cannon if you believe outfits represents events in survivors lifes. Now this is were the whole ACE THEORY comes in. Ace was a piolet that at least was 25k off the ground(The pants confirm this). Ace's plane was enclosed(captains hat proves that) so the plane Ace piloted was most likely bombers or cargo planes. Ace might of piloted the plane that dropped the nuke on Japan. This caused Ace to obviously have issues in the future from that(PTSD) and after his service his already gambling addiction intensified. WW2 ended and Ace had ptsd and his only escape was gambling. What do you guys think? Do you think i could be right or am i just overthinking things? Tell me what you think.

I could see Ace dropping the nuke but we wont know unless behavior confirms it somehow using the achieve.

Overthinking it. Here's a picture of Ace holding a very modern looking smartphone, from his archive lore. I don't think you can consider outfits 'canon lore'. Since that'd suggest Kate and Yui have played music together, David and Jake have worked in a mine back in the 30s, Claudette, Kate and Jeff having hung out at a bar together etcetc.

At most I assumed these were just survivors pulled from different timelines. Kind of explaining why Laurie Strode and Jake Park have older versions of themselves as alternative costumes, Dwight can appear in different work uniforms, and Ace seems younger in some alternative skins. It's also my way of explaining why four Megs can work together on the same team.
(side note: imagine working with three other versions of yourself.)
