[[Phil Cassidy]] is a firearms expert and dealer who first appeared in [[GTA III]], where he claimed to have lost an arm in Nicaragua. In contrast to his appearance in GTA III, the younger Phil is more energetic, but drinks to the point of drunkenness during one mission (qualities which become more common during his appearance in Vice City Stories). He also appears with both arms intact and participates in Tommy's "Job," a heist at a local bank. In Tommy's final mission for him, Phil loses an arm when his "[[boomshine]]", a homemade and hazardous explosive/alcoholic beverage named after ''moonshine'', explodes directly in front of him. After the explosion, Tommy must drive Phil to the hospital while suffering from blood loss and the intoxicating effects of the boomshine. On the way to the hospital, Phil has Vietnam flashbacks and post-traumatic stress disorder. After that point, he continues to sell Tommy rare and powerful weapons. | [[Phil Cassidy]] is a firearms expert and dealer who first appeared in [[Grand Theft Auto III|GTA III]], where he claimed to have lost an arm in Nicaragua.

Although Phil claims to serve in various divisions of the Army, records show that Phil was repeatedly rejected for service because of drunkenness and an unsuitable temperament for combat. Phil is also a gun enthusiast, with memberships in various Second Amendment organizations and Vice City gun clubs. Phil is also known to be fighting against Mexican gun-running gangs. | Although Phil claims to serve in various divisions of the Army, records show that Phil was repeatedly rejected for service because of drunkenness and an unsuitable temperament for combat.

Unusually, despite assuming an African-American appearance like Lance, Victor speaks in an Latin accent (Victor speaks in a more African-American accent in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]). This is related to a retcon from GTA Vice City Stories that suggests the Vance brother's father was from the Dominican Republic, while the brothers spend most of their time there following their experiences in Vice City Stories. | Unusually, despite assuming an African-American appearance like Lance, Victor speaks in an Latin accent (Victor speaks in a more African-American accent in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]).
