Autobiography:
I was born at Planet Cambridge Primary Care Trust delivery centre 52C to a family of artisans, and since then my family has attempted to prepare me for the life of a professional. Between myself and my older brothers, we were groomed towards a life wearing a suit as our uniform, designing, constructing or crafting whatever we would happen to be talented at. My brothers took to this better than I, and by the time our family decided to emigrate to Planet Erie in the Pennsylvania system, had found their footing in architectural design and logistical management.
On the other hand, I found myself struggling to keep up, being much more interested in fitness and beauty. Originally I had tried to enter the profession of fashion design but found myself without the talent required. It was shortly after the realisation that I found myself walking by a Liberty Navy recruitment drive event. Rheinland had just started the war with Liberty and even though there was the usual fanfare that there is at the start of a war when the average Joe clambers to be a part of the never-to-materialise Great War, I could already detect some grimness amongst the servicemen whose job it was to man the recruitment post.
I thought nothing of it for a while, it wasn’t my fight and even if it was, my family moved away from Bretonia to get away from just the same kind of thing. We had left Bretonia before that war had escalated in a manner which could be felt by normal consumers, but this time there was really nowhere else to go that would be free and safe. To be honest, I had never thought of joining up with the Liberty Navy until the day I had an argument with my parents which culminated in my father stating quite bluntly that “you should just go and get yourself killed in this pointless war instead of going back home to die there”. I mulled his words over and decided to take his advice, which I’m sure he regrets.
Having now graduated from basic training and officer preparation, I feel that I’m ready to take on the role of junior officer within the Liberty Navy, and my preference would be to do so within the Primary Fleet. I am finding the officer corps to be a place where I truly believe in my ability to perform under pressure and to a high standard, neither of which I could manage in any peaceful profession that I was encouraged to pursue earlier in my life.
