David Cody
|
David Cody currently serves aboard the USS Independence-A as its Chief of Security and Second Officer, once a former civilian trade securities investigator during his youth. A former bondsman for the Ferengi, David spent a chunk of his youth as a trader aboard the Skiptrace before landing himself in a bad deal gone wrong and served with the Ferengi for a couple years until finally returning to Mars in 2380. Following a short inquest into the nature behind his parents’ death, the Starfleet Chief Medical Examiner suggested David might think about joining Starfleet. He went in under an accelerated three year program focusing on tactical security before he was dispatched to the USS Independence, under the command of RAdm. Jessa Anassasi and since has had the pleasure of serving with several members of the Fleet and continues to serve aboard the Independence exploring the Ithassa Region. The current crew of the Independence-A can be found here. For more information about UFOP: StarBase 118, please visit Our Website

Personal History
- Full Article: David Cody Personal History
Born in 2352, David is the only child of civilian engineer Barnes Cody and his wife, Barbara Jennet, the founder and owner of Jennet Trade Securities Corporation (JTSC). His childhood was filled with the sweeping sand dunes and the colony cities of Mars, where he had attended primary and secondary education, and could usually be found helping his father rebuilt machines or out cave diving, one of his loved pastimes from youth. He had the opportunity to help his father restore an old Forerunner shuttlecraft (which would later be identified as the JTSC-3 Prototype), and given the location of the house, which was outside of the city, he was very much an outback child getting a mix of both the old and the new.

238501.30 – Present: The Third Year: RAdm Anassasi ordered crew physicals and psychological reviews in May of 2385 just prior to Commander Sidney Riley taking command of the USS Tiger. With the recent arrival of LtCmdr Jophry Calhan, it remains to be seen if the insomnia issue is brought up (although it's been reported Cody has been detained with the arrival of new crew members).
