Story
Edit
Dead Rising
Edit
The Hatchet Man
Edit
Josh was mistaken as a member of the Viet Cong and held captive by the psychopath Cliff. He and two other captives, Rich Atkins and Barbara Patterson, were trapped inside an empty store next to Crislip's Home Saloon. After Cliff is defeated, Frank unlocks the doors and convinces the three frightened survivors to follow him to the Security Room. If Frank kills one of the survivors before recruitment, none of them will be willing to talk to Frank, and they become impossible to recruit.
Kindell's Betrayal
Edit
After being rescued, he will wait in the room with the green door. When Kindell Johnson believes that there is no helicopter coming in three days, he rallies up the other survivors in the same room, including Josh, to make a break for it. If Frank does not stop Kindell's mutiny, Josh will leave the Security Room along with the other survivors in the same room. They will no longer count towards the number of rescued survivors.
Fate
Edit
Depending on the ending, Josh was either rescued by Ed DeLuca, taken into custody by the Special Forces and possibly killed to cover up the Willamette incident, or killed by Carlito Keyes's bombs.
Infinity Mode
Edit
Josh appears at the Heliport from 2:19:00 to 3:00:00 carrying grapefruit.
