(Background)
Wes was born on the outskirts of Seattle Washington in 2366 to Joan and George Greaves. He spent his childhood enjoying the life in the suburbs, and making the short trips into the Cascade Mountains. Growing up, he fell in love with the wilderness and became and avid hiker and camper in his teen years, making many weekend climbing trips to some of Earth’s most beautiful mountains. Inspired by the defeat of the Borg in the Alpha Quadrant, he was determined to serve the people of the Federation. With his affinity for the outdoors, he sought out a Marine Corps recruiter’s office at the age of 18.
With his enlistment and basic training complete as a combat engineer, he first served on Mars with the 1st Marine Division. After several years he was assigned to Task Force 51/5, a Starfleet led anti-piracy campaign, where he saw his first combat both in space, and planet side. Following a successful tour, he was assigned to the newly created 3rd Marine Expeditionary Brigade, a Marine command focused on anti-piracy operations. Here he experienced combat once again, but this time as a small unit leader, where he suffered the first combat loss of a Marine under his charge. This was a fundamental moment in Wes’ life, and the experience nearly resulted in his retirement from the Corps. Through mentorship with an excellent Marine officer, Major Jordans, Wes recommitted himself to the Marine Corps and future service.
In 2391, after completing Marine Advanced Training, Wes was promoted to Staff Sergeant and assigned to the USS Hood as part of a new Marine Detachment aboard the ship, serving once again under Major Jordans. Assigned to a nine-month crisis response deployment, the ship extended for a total of 16 months on mission to continue to assist the flood of Romulan refugees. Initially highly disappointed with a “Navy” ship-based assignment, Wes came to love life aboard the ship working hand in hand with Starfeet’s finest. The shoulder to shoulder work, and the continued work with Major Jordans inspired Wes to apply for Starfleet Academy to become a commissioned officer.
