Personality & Traits
General Overview | Jetfire is a very laid back guy. |
Personal History | Jetfire grew up a military brat. His dad, being an NCO, packed his family all over the fleet. For whichever posting he was assigned to next. So naturally, it was no surprise that Jetfire only ever dreamed of following his dad's footsteps. With his mom as the school teacher for most of his base and ship life, Jetfire never worried about his grades. He was encouraged to only ever do better if he did not get the marks he needed. When his dad finally became COB of the USS Crusader, the resourceful teenager went about networking with his dad's buddies to get sim time. For he wanted to be a pilot, above all else. And at the age of 18, he passed his basic flight qualifications easily. But because of the fact, Starfleet Academy was so hard to get into, his application did not stand out and he was denied. Still, he did not let that bother him too much. Instead, he enlisted. Went through boot in the top ten percent of his training company. It was not until he was finished with Warrant Officer School and transferred to Starfleet Academy School of Fighter Operations that he met his future wife Maryann "Casper" Knoxx. They married after graduation and eventually settled down. He had a wonderful life with Maryann too. Up until she was injured in a shuttle accident. He took a few years off too, to re-evaluate his life. But with the urging of his kids to keep going, he eventually returned to Starfleet with the mission to teach young pilots to be better than they are. |
