I was born on September 17, 2522 in Houston, Texas, Earth. I knew my mother, Shelby, but I never realy knew my father, Ritchard, that much because of his military career as a marine in the UNSCMC. In 2534, I discovered my father was involved in the theft of UNSC property and was wanted by the UNSCMPD and ONI. (This did not help my personal life.) In 2543, when I was old enough, I was drafted into the UNSCA. When I was through with boot camp, I learned that my father was killed and ONI put a tribunal together to debate whether or not my father was guilty. I was brought before the jury and judge and was almost incarcerated and stuck in the hole for life. The only thing that saved me was a "request for transferance" from Vice Admiral James Bennet. Under one condition, my resignation as a Private First Class in the Marine Corps and a transfer to the Navy as a Leiutenant under Bennet's direct command. As it turned out he and my father were friends at the Naval Academy on Earth before they graduated in 2517. Anyways timed progressed and I became a Commender, eventually, of a frigate until in was shot to hell by the Covenant in 2548, Then, for heroic actions I was promoted to Captain, and was hand picked for a top secret assignment, I can't mention, and given the UNSC Hansgraf. However, when it was cancled, I reaturned in time to see Reach be annialated by the Covies. I was the Long Night of Solice disintegrate, the Trafalgar get ripped in half by Covenant carrier, and the Pillar of Autumn punch through the Covies blockade over the planet. Soon after, my ship took part in the Battle for Earth in 2552. Since then I've done countless missions and even be asked if I would get the rank of Rear Admiral L.H. I doubt it and, truthfully, I don't care. I am but a Captain, and the Hansgraf is my ship. Clear and simple. No more, no less.
