Taggart has dreamed of being a Starfleet Marine since the age of five. His bedroom being plastered with posters his father had somehow managed to score for him from the local enlistment office, models of ships that had housed famous Marines, and a couple of replicated regimental flags. He even collected an entire set of bubblegum cards that between them showcased the insignia of every single Marine regiment and squadron in Starfleet as well as having his uncles dress uniform rank insignia. | |||
Taggart looks up to his Uncle as a hero-figure, as his death was in the line of his duty as a Starfleet officer and simply doing his job. In part this has formed the younger Taggart's desire to "make a difference". | |||
Medals and accolades don't interest him, and promotion only mildly. He wants to be a good Marine and keep people safe. | |||

*'''Uncle''': Major Simeon Taggart, Starfleet Marines [Deceased] | |||
Major Simeon Taggart was a Marine officer with a secondary specialization in engineering who was killed aboard the USS Merida-C after a miscalculation by a junior crewman. The explosion cast Major Taggart, the crewman in question and fourteen others including the both the Merida's Chief and Assistant Chief Engineers into the cold of space before emergency shielding sealed the hull breach. | |||
