Background

Jack practiced Medicine for a number of years in his family's practice with his Grandfather, Father and Elder brother. He was always an adventurer at heart spending most of his free time outdoors hunting and fishing. He decided that he wanted to explore life more and thought Starfleet would be a wonderful way to do something useful but get away. His family was actually supportive of the idea and he joined, the first of his family. At the Academy he tended to keep to himself but is very friendly to everyone, unless they got on his bad side. Although very friendly it is not very hard to anger or rile him up if he felt you were being disrespectful or rude. Also once on his bad side it takes a while to get back onto his good. He has a nearly photographic memory, is extremely observant and is actually an extremely good marksman. He has found his time on the Darwin to be very rewarding and exactly what he hoped for. He has found himself thrust into a situation where he was the senior doctor much sooner than he had ever planned. It was a new situation for him. He had always been under his Father or older brother when it came to the private practice so finding himself in charge is taking some getting used to.

It was not long however after becoming CMO of the Darwin he was transferred to the USS Columbia to be CMO of the recommissioned ship. Corbin was more ready now to be CMO and he goes to the Columbia prepared to run the sickbay.

Mission History

239012.30 - 239102.01: Talvath's Taint - A Romulan colony is struck by disaster- Jack's first experience as a Starfleet officer, and felt he made many mistakes in his first mission. He felt he dealt with situations rashly, which although his nature, was not exactly what he deems appropriate for a Starfleet officer. It made him try to rethink some things about himself and how he actually deals with people. Life is different as a Starfleet doctor than a Civilian one. At the conclusion of this mission Jack was promoted to Lieutenant (J.G.) and presented with a Silver Lifesaving Ribbon for his efforts in saving the Chief Engineers life.

239102.17 - 239104.02: Phosphino-Titenozine Incidence - After a freighter raced away from DS6 the crew of the Darwin found themselves chasing the freighter. This was a difficult mission for Corbin finding himself doing his first interrogation then dealing with Captain Reinard and Commander Brice being effected by a new unknown drug. Having lost his cool with Dr. Manius, Corbin had to take a step back and try to regain his composure so that he could do his job.

239104.16 - 239106.01: Asavii Biodome 2 Epidemic - The mission started with the sickbay being left without a CMO. Corbin found himself having to step into this role unprepared and unqualified in his mind. Luckily the sickbay was assigned a new brilliant medical officer in the name of Dr. Clio Margariti and he still had the extreme expertise f Dr. Todd Manius. The Darwin having been sent to the Asav system only to find the USS Valorous heavily damaged. Dr. Margariti and he found much death and devastation on board including a hull breach right on top of the sickbay having left the sickbay in ruins. It will be a memory that Corbin will not soon forget. After the Valorous Corbin and Dr. Margariti found themselves on a away team heading to biodome 2. An underwater dome of the Asavii people. Upon arrival they quickly discover that the Asavii people there are suffering from an epidemic. Dr. Margariti was quickly able to figure out what was going on however they had to deal with the CSO Lt. Matthews who seemed to have it out for both them and the Asavii. Lt. Matthews really rubbed Corbin the wrong way almost to the point that Corbin felt the urge for violence. Luckily he controlled himself and just put Lt. Matthews under the category of people he did not like and leaders who were bullies and not true leaders. Between Dr. Margariti and himself they were able to figure out the cause of the epidemic and find a simple cure for the Asavii. The rest of the crew was able to fix the air filtration and avoid diplomatic disaster. At the end of this mission Corbin was promoted to full Lieutenant and given the medical sciences ribbon. On top of that he was also given the responsibility of being the new CMO.

239106.15 - 239107.12: Q Incident - After his recent promotion and appointment officially as CMO the medical staff were celebrating their promotions when suddenly the senior staff and crew of the Darwin found themselves transported to prehistoric earth by the mysterious and powerful Q. After overcoming trial after trial and even figuring out how to do primitive medicine to help his wounded friend Dr. Margariti the crew was finally were returned to the Darwin. It was shortly after this that the transfer came in and off Corbin went to the USS Columbia.
