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 planetside. 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, Private [[Paul Newson]] This was a fundamental moment in Wes’s life, and the experience nearly resulted in his retirement from the Corps. Through mentorship with an excellent Marine officer, Major [[Ron Jordans]], Wes recommitted himself to the Marine Corps and future service. | With his enlistment and basic training complete as a [[StarFleet Marine Corps: Combat Engineering|combat engineer]], he first served on Mars with the 1st Marine Division.
