Biography[]
Herman Mueller, Jr. was born in 1899 to the wealthy treasure hunter, Herman Mueller, Sr. The junior Mueller was a Boy Scout and, by 1912, Indy considered him his best friend alongside Indiana, despite not knowing him well.
That year Herman and his friend Indiana Jones went on a Boy Scout equestrian camping trip together in Utah. After separating from the rest of the troop, Herman and Indy explored a cave in a canyon, where they discovered Fedora and his crew digging up the Cross of Coronado. Indy sent Herman back to find Mr. Havelock and inform the Sheriff that there were looters in the caves. After being scared by a snake, Herman took off on his mission.
