[edit] Vietnam
Jimbo and Ned met during the Vietnam War. During the war, Ned lost his right arm when a hand grenade exploded while he was still holding it. It is unknown as to why he never got a mechanical replacement. Ned also lost his formerly mellifluous voice due to cancer, apparently caused by cigarette smoking, and is forced to speak with an electronic voicebox. Despite the fact that Ned lost one of his arms, he can still wield two-handed weapons, such as a flamethrower and even an M249 SAW in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut.
[edit] Huntin' and Killin'
He is usually seen hunting with Jimbo and is a co-host on Huntin' and Killin. When Jimbo says "It's coming right for us", Ned usually repeats it in his electronic voice.
Another one of Ned's phrases are "M-m-m-m-m-m I'm scared!". His phrases are not heard any more after he seems to have disappeared from the series (see below).

Ned was more prominent in the first four seasons, such as Pip and Chef.
