. Background Summary
---------------------
Benjamin Nelson Mitchell  is a man of honor and respect. Having been raised with the ethics and ideas of law & order, 
he does tend to open his mouth at times and give a glib or sarcastic response which has been known to 
unintentionally land him in trouble.

His childhood, was average and he spent most of his time at the Starfleet Cultural Center in Downtown Phoenix..

The first real traumatic moment of his life did not occur until he was already serving in the fleet: his father was 
captain of the USS Icarus this was where he remembered a distrust of Romulans.

Despite his distaste of Romulans there was an incident while Sam was the senior navigational officer on board the 
U.S.S. Icarus when a Romulan scout ship breached the border and crashed on the planet of Cochise III. The Captain 
& First officer wanted to blow the ship from orbit.

 

Benjamin was able to convince the Captain (his father) and First Officer with the help of the chief medical officer 
that despite the incident it would improve relations with the Romulans should they assist any survivors who 
crashed on the Federation Planet.

 

He was successful in saving what turned out to be the Romulan Ambassador the Federation.

As a result of this incident he transferred off the Icarus and caused a rift between Father & Son.

VII. Psychological Profile
==========================
Benjamin Mitchell  may be a sarcastic and cynical individual but that is just a tip of the iceberg this man is capable of. 
He is extremely gifted and understands the nature of security and command and is a very competent officer.

There was an incident however earlier in his career where he prevented the Captain & First Officer of a ship he served 
on from killing crashed survivors of a Romulan Delegation on the way to earth. Despite his initial dislike of them he 
overcame that to lead a rescue mission.
