A fictional character created by Tom Clancy that can be found in a variety of his books and video games. Domingo "Ding" Chavez born Jan 12, 1968 in Las Angeles, CA.
Domingo was first recruited to be a member of a secret CIA-run anti-drug operation in Colombia in Clear and Present Danger, while he was still a sergeant in the U.
S.
Army. He first met John
Clark during this novel and has worked with him since. He has at least two advanced degrees and is fluent in
English, Spanish,
Russian, Japanese, and Farsi. Domingo worked with John
Clark in implementing "Plan
Blue" (recruitment of law enforcement officers as intelligence officers) during Executive Orders, some inside Iran.
Clark and Chavez lead multiple operations for President Ryan in this novel, some inside Iran. He later was recruited into and became a team leader (with the rank of major) in the multinational counterterrorist organization RAINBOW in Rainbow Six, which defeated several terrorist groups and prevented a bioterrorism plague. It is worthy to note that he later became "Rainbow Six" himself in the later Rainbow Six video games, such as Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas. The position was formerly held by his
father-in-law, John
Clark.
Domingo is known to possess at least 3 Intelligence Stars; one issued at the beginning of Debt of Honor after a successful operation in East
Africa, one issued for John
Clark and Domingo during the Japanese conflict, as well as one for his ongoing operations carried out in Executive Orders. These awards—generally given for valor in black operations that officially "never happened"—are awarded secretly, and no medals or ribbons are worn: their existence is classified.
