John James Kirk was born on the planet of Bajor in 2392. His parents were; Dr. Douglas & Ambassador Catherine Kirk. He was born on Valentine’s Day, a surprise for his parents and an annoyance for his half siblings. He is fifth cousins once removed from another famous Kirk, Admiral Alexandra Kirk.


John  James Kirk  was born on February 14th, 2388 on Bajor in the City of Ashalla in the Dakhur Province.
John who went by the name of Jack growing up always had this sense that there was something different about him. Unlike his half siblings; Christina & Daniel McCord Jack always did things on the edge.  
He is fifth cousins once removed from another famous Kirk, Admiral Alexandra Kirk, currently Chief of
Starfleet Operations.  Admiral Kirk and He are distantly related to another legendary man, James T. Kirk.
 
John who goes by the nickname of Jack had always known there was something different about him. Unlike his
half siblings, brother Daniel and Sister Christine, Jack always did things on the edge. As a Boy, Jack would
often go exploring around the mountains or the wilderness areas near their Bajoran Home.
 
Jack's parents were often never home due to Catherine's status as Special Federation Envoy, and his
father's work as a civilian engineer for the Opaka Shipyards.  When Jack was five years old his parents
were killed in an accident in B'Halla the ancient Bajoran City.  Jack was left an orphan and was raised by
Bajoran Monks. When John was of age he  was given a  rare treasure unlike any other, he had an Orb experience.
 
The Orb revealed his true identity, he then embarked on a spiritual Journey to find himself. Eventually he
found himself on Earth, had partook the Starfleet Academy Entrance Exam.  That Fall Kirk entered Starfleet
Academy, it was also here he learned of his family lineage.


Kirk was like his legendary distant uncle, constantly harassed but unlike his uncle whom had a singular

tormentor, Jack had a group of boys who constantly irritated him and harassed him believing the Legend of
Kirk had gotten him into Starfleet rather than on merit.


Towards the end of his freshman year, the constant harassment had come to a head at the Warp Core Club,
Due to his mother’s status as a Federation Ambassador and his father’s work as an archeologist they were almost never home. He had often been left in the care of a nanny or his elder siblings who resented him.  
a place of relaxation that many Cadets frequented after hours.  Kirk's tormentors, a group of elite
cadets known as Omega Squadron were picking on a fellow Freshman Cadet of Kirk's known as Padar, a youthful
Ferengi. Jack decided to intervene.


At first Jack had convinced the members of Omega Squadron that he was joining them in the hazing, but his

true intentions were known when he managed to get Padar to safety. A Fight ensued, Kirk nor the Omega
Squadron cadets could recall who threw the first punch, but all including Padar admitted Kirk threw the
last one. Kirk was arrested by Starfleet Security.


Hauled in before a Cadet Review board testimonies by the Omega Squadron had painted a Picture of Kirk's

attitude and temper, some often pointing out that Kirk had thrown the first punch which was not backed up
by forensic evidence. When confronted on the Witness stand Kirk admitted to fighting, a charge that could
cashier him out of Starfleet.  However, Kirk, also admitted to another fault of his.  Kirk pointed out
correctly that Starfleet for all its teachings, must rely on judgement of those that wear the uniform. It
was human nature to stand up for those that cannot stand up for themselves. If being punished for standing
up for the principles that built the Federation, then the uniform had no meaning especially for standing
up for those that were not of Human such as Padar, a Ferengi.


Cadet Kirk was in the end given a formal reprimand on his record after other witnesses came forward
His elder siblings refused to take custody of him and Jack was transferred to the Ashalla Orphanage where he would be raised by Bajoran Monks.
confessing to being bullied by the Omega Members, Kirk also recieved a commendation for good conduct during
the brawl. The Omega Squadron Members all had their academic credentials for the year suspended, and forced
to repeat the year, the senior members of the Squadron voluntarily resigned from the Academy including the
man that had personally tormented Kirk, a Klingon named Seral.

In the spring of his eighteenth year Kirk was given a rare blessing; an orb experience. The Orb revealed his true identity and purpose in lifeJohn believed his orb experience and took the Starfleet Entrance Exam, he passed with flying colors. That fall Kirk entered Starfleet Academy and for the first time set foot upon Earth, the planet of his parent’s birth.  
to this day the case is still ongoingHe returned after two weeks having convinced the Bajoran Authorities
to reopen the accident case.
 
Upon Graduation of Starfleet Academy Kirk was promoted to Ensign, and assigned as helm officer aboard the
USS Sir Francis Drake NCC-31826.

Mr. Kirk does not let his size be an impediment to duty. He has been an invaluable officer and his contributions have been limitless. While he may be rough around the edges and his tendency to pull phasers is still quite evident I have found that he does have a penchant for diplomacy even if it is blunt and sometimes politically incorrect. He brings forth a refreshing point of view that I and many members of my species have lacked.  Logic suggests due to his unique universal view He will make a fine officer and one day perhaps a Starfleet Captain who brings a little cowboy diplomacy back to the frontier.

I have nothing but the highest respect and admiration for John Kirk. He simply is the finest officer for which I have worked with.  He commands respect without having to say a word. When he talks people listen.  While I am not a Starfleet Officer I have observed Kirk in various situations and I believe he carries the responsibility placed upon him with great reverence. While he does not hesitate to use force to solve a situation he also doesn’t hesitate to speak truth where few people expect it.
