Biographical Notes ======================= A. Chronology (tabular form): ----------------------------- 0-17: Lived with parents on Luna. Received standard public education there. 18-22: Attended Star Fleet Academy. 23-Present: Active duty in Star Fleet. B. Background Summary: ---------------------- Sam is your typical run-of-the-mill officer, who is dependable, punctual and competent. However, he possesses neither exceptional skill nor a real drive to succeed. In short, he does his job in a competent though not exceptional manner, and seems quite satisfied with that. If Sam does indeed possess a gift, it would be in the academic side of security- he can look at all the data on a situation, and, given enough time, will come up with a solid plan that keeps loss of life to a minimum. However, when it comes time to implement said plan, he is NOT naturally-gifted at this, and is not good at improvisation. He is an adequate leader, neither inspiring unusual loyalty nor driving people within his department to transfer. This general malaise in his attiude shited somewhat after his assignments on the BURKE and RAMSES after learning that sometimes the difference between winning and losing- or, life and death, as the case may be- can be found in the effort. Space is dangerous, and only the best efforts give one the best chance at surviving. He has accepted this, and is a much-improved officer because of it. He, for the first time, tasted command in his last days aboard the RAMSES, taking command when Captain Carmen Hasselbeck was killed in the Battle of Tybiiran. For the first time, Sam felt as though made difference; the crew was defeated and down, and he gave them the hope for victory. This more than anything signalled his turn-around in attitude. His tour as XO of the MARC ANTONY has been excellent, resulting in a third solid pip on his collar and moving one assignment away from command of his own. There have even been rumors that he was assigned to DS13 with the idea that he would eventually replace Commander S'Tveck as station Commandant. However, this would not be the case: he would instead go back to Advanced Tactical School at Star Fleet Academy and eventually replace Corwyn O'Dwyer as CO of LEVIATHAN. ================================================================== IV.
