Meng Ishkan Tian entered Star Fleet Academy on StarDate 238501.05. Being the third Kerelian accepted to Star Fleet Academy was an honor. The first being [[ma:Nella Daren|Lieutenant Commander Nella Daren]] and the second [[West,_Heath|Major Heath West]]. Unlike most cadets, Meng knew what posting he wanted after graduation: [[StarFleet_Intelligence|Star Fleet Intelligence]]. Ever since he was a little boy he was fascinated with spy and mystery novels from all over the Galaxy. His favorite book was by Earth's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Conrad Joseph Conrad], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Agent ''The Secret Agent'']. Fluency in seven galactic languages, ([[Romulan]], [[Klingon]], [[Cardassian]], [[Chrysalian]], [[Delbian]], [[Tholian]], and the almost impossible [[Jarada]]n) combined with his martial arts skills would seem to be a good fit for a career in intelligence. | Meng Ishkan Tian entered Star Fleet Academy on StarDate 238501.05.

Cadet Tian wished there was a minor for [[Marines|Star Fleet Marines]] but that was something that could not be had. He did make Marine friends and trained with them when the opportunities were had. The hardened Marines were impressed with his toughness and expertise with the [[ma:Bat%27leth|Bat'leth]] and invited him to holodeck battle simulations. | Cadet Tian wished there was a minor for [[Marines|Star Fleet Marines]] but that was something that could not be had. He did make Marine friends and trained with them when the opportunities were had. The hardened Marines were impressed with his toughness and expertise with the [[ma:Bat%27leth|Bat'leth]] and invited him to holodeck battle simulations. During his 1st year he met and became fast friends with 2nd year cadet [[Vek'Ma]], a [[Klingon]], who was aspiring to be the first [[Marines|Star Fleet Marine]]. They spent many hours not only in the gym but listening to [[ma:Klingon_opera|Klingon opera]]. | ||
The first year for the cadet was surprisingly dull. He arrived at the Academy prepared for the grueling physical training and his mental discipline from his music and martial arts background allowed him to focus on his studies where he excelled. Always with a smile and upbeat attitude, Cadet Tian became a favorite at the academy. He spent much of his spare time helping those who had problems with the physical training and organized a [[ma:Mok%27bara|mok'bara]] club. This was leadership by the cadre and soon they tested his abilities by assigning him as a Cadet Squadron Leader. | The first year for the cadet was surprisingly dull.
