Family History

Maj.Collin M. Shepard was the model Marine, well on his way to become a General. He was the standard stereotypical Marine. He was an Infantry Commander and was a damn fine one until he was killed. While in an observation craft, it was hit by Dominion forces and Maj.Shepard died in the crash. Maj.Shepard was the best dad he could be. Being a top Marine Infantry Officer took him away from his family constantly. Maj.Shepard told his sons stories of Heroic Marines and family members who also served in the Corps. He was a loving husband and always treated his wife with respect. When John R. Shepard joined the SFMC, Maj.Shepard was proud, but did not like him going into Special Operations. He was crushed when John came up M.I.A. and tried everything and used up all his connections in the SFMC and Starfleet in order to find John, but it was no use. Maj. Shepard did live long enough to see his youngest and last son join the Marine Corps, but he died before Jack M. Shepard graduated from Basic Training.

Juana Sofia Shepard, before marriage, Rodriguez. Juana met Maj.Collin M. Shepard in her home town. Juana and Collin where together since their school years and stayed with each other until her beloved husband's death. It was hard for her to become a Marine wife and later a Marine mother. When Collin was off doing his duty, Juana had to take care of the entire family. Juana is a loving mother and very supportive. When John came up M.I.A., Juana had to be the strong one for both Jack and Collin. Of course she cried and grieved for her lost son, but she had to be the glue for what is left of her family and care for Michael. Even though she lost her oldest, she let Jack join the military. She did not want to, but she knew it was also in Jack's spirit. When Collin died, she fell apart and she hated herself for a while for letting Jack go. Poor Juana died of a heart attack at the death notice of her last Jack.

Corporal John R. Shepard was the oldest Shepard boy. He was Jack's big brother and guardian. He was an out going person and every athletic. He listened to his father's stories and especially liked the ones that talked about the Special Ops Marines. John always wanted to be a Spec Ops Marine since the day he learned of their existence. When it came time for him to leave and join the Corps, John got into a huge argument with his father. His father very strongly disliked John's plans about going into Special Operations. Knowing that he could not win, Maj.Shepard gave in and supported John all the way. John became an awesome Marine and obtained the rank of Corporal. Cpl.Shepard went on a few missions and his final one, he went missing. Cpl.Shepard along with two other Marines got separated during a mission and was never found. Before leaving for basic, he married his high school sweetheart Jennifer. Shortly after the marraige Jennifer was pregant. John was able to see his son Scott born, but sadly Jennifer died in labor. About a year and a half later John disappeared. Scott was left to be cared for by young Jack Shepard and his grandmother, Juana. After declassification, records posted that Cpl.Shepard was killed by Romulans.

Scott Alexander Shepard is Jack's nephew. Jack was the stand father figure despite his young age. He didn't have much choice in the matter since the responsibilty was thrusted upon him by the disappearance of his brother John. Jack cared for him and was there throught his early years. At age nine, Jack left Scott in the care of his grandmother as he left for the marines. Jack kept in contact with Scott after his time with Spec Ops was over. When Jack decided to leave Starfleet to save his friend, Scott was furious. It took time for him to warm up to his uncle once he re-surfaced. After Jack disappeared on Layte, Scott was more than happy to see that his uncle was alive and well. Jack promised he wouldn't go on anymore fool-hardy missions. Obviously that was a promise Jack broke as he accepted a special assignment. Scott was once again furious at the news his uncle gave him. Scott did regret the nature of his last conversation with his uncle. As he later realized that his uncle did just lose his wife and was leaving a crew that he started to see as family.

After surviving his enlistment in the Dominion War. Jack was allowed to apply for the academy.

Shepard did a pretty good job in the academy, he did not end up at the top of his class. But of course, because of his past training, he out did everyone in combat trainings. Shepard was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant and assigned to the USS Constitution- B.

Shepard's fist assignment led him to a planet called Kepos Prime

which was being setup to colonize people for the Federation. He went on an away team that which he lost two officers and a ton of rocks fell on top of him. He made it out and healed fine. Later Jack was switched out of the SFMC and promoted to LTJG. He was made the Chief of Security for the remainder of his time on Kepos Prime. The remaining Borg attacked the facility. The crew of the Constitution held up until reinforcements arrived. Jack's final act on the USS Constitution- B was protecting the ship from a Borg boarding.

He was later sent back to Earth for a Court Martial for actions he committed during his time in the Marines. His Court Martial was ruled inconclusive. While away, Jack learned of the Constitution' s disappearance. He was then re-assigned to the USS Independence. He participated in a sortie to the Furies Furnace and an undercover retrieval of a satellite by a low tech civilization. Right before the Independence got entangled in a war with the Gorn. Jack received a message from an old buddy who used to be in the Marines. It was about an old friend of his who was abandoned. He made the difficult decision of leaving Starfleet to join a group of former Marines to rescue a friend "forgotten" by Starfleet Intelligence. After the team's sucessful extraction of thier fellow Marine, the teams where paid by undercover Intelligence agents to do thier dirty work, which led to mercenary work . Starfleet reinstated Shepard as an Ensign, due to leaving at the eve of the Gorn War.
Jack spent the remainder of his known career on board the USS Ronin. His last assignment sent him off ship for an unspecified task force. Communication with the task force has been silent two months after disembarkation. Notices of death has been sent to all team members' families.
