Memories long forgotten

The room was small. It wasn't so small to be a cell but not a large luxury chamber either, sparsely furnished with only a grey bed and a dull metal dresser against one wall. Currently, its inhabitant was standing in front of the dresser, rummaging through a drawer for something...
He stood tall at nearly six feet, dressed in a clean white lab coat over the professional black uniform the members of his rank were assigned.
