Biography:
*taps the mic*
Ahem... right. At the ripe age of 23, I suppose it's time for me to send this in. I've been putting it off for two or three years now, between work and apprehension. But I'm finally read to pull the trigger, which brings this application to your desk now.
As you can see from the previous pages, I was born and raised in the Texas system. I call Planet Houston "home," though these days I'm actually in space so much that I don't know which direction to head at the end of shifts. My father has spent most of his natural life working for Ageria Technologies as an engineer, which should explain how I landed the maintenance assistant job there. Though, I've never been much for Ageria... of course, I've never been a real "chip off the block" in any sense of the phrase. My parents are both pretty aggressive pacifists, if that makes any sense. Ever since this mess of a war the Rheinland, they've been in and out of protests. Hell, they'd have dragged me out to some sign-toting rally every weekend if I'd have it.
But that's never been me. No, I take more to my uncle Jim. His stories of his service in the Southern Alliance, then transfer to the Liberty Navy really brings the tensions with Rheinland to full color. He's been there, you know? I don't know that that applies too much to this application, but it's worth mentioning that he's probably the main reason you're reading this now... well, that or my distaste for my parent's constant complaints about this war.
But now I'm here, so I'm sure you want all the details. I'm proud, and always have been proud to boast a clean record with the LPI, of course I expect you've already dug that up as well. I imagine between that and the clearance needed to do even the most minor repairs on lane equipment should speak for itself.
I don't have much flying experience... then again, I guess that's what pre-commission training is for, right? I always pester uncle Jim to show me the ropes--take his personal craft for a spin, and show me how he flew back in his Navy days--but he always plays it off on being "too rusty" or "too tired." I know better. He's dodging the pending scolding from my mother if he ever took me out for a joy ride, and I understand his pain.
Nevertheless, here I am. I'm determined to live up to his reputation as a quality officer in the Navy, if you'll have me. Guess that's about it for this application. Look forward to hearing back from you soon.
