User:Ben Burns: Difference between revisions

It all started in central Pennsylvania for Ben. He wanted to be a part of starfleet since he first saw Archer’s speech about the federation in history class in elementary school. It was his dream to captain a ship and be the best officer there ever was. After his high school graduation, he applied to Starfleet Academy. When he was asked about what he wanted to study/ what post he wanted to have, he realized that he hadn’t thought it through that far. He asked for a few days to think about it, thanks to the grace and leniency that starfleet had for him. He read through many of ship’s records. Especially the battles. He was fascinated by temporal mechanics as well. The more and more he thought about it, he realized that the amount of enjoyment he got out of reading about the fighting done by Starfleet, he wanted to do tactical. With a little bit of dabbling in temporal mechanics. He returned to the academy and picked his field. Throughout his years at the academy, he was one of the best in his class when it came to combat performance, marksmanship, hand-to-hand combat, weapons operation, weapons manufacture, and of course, temporal mechanics. But, that would all change during his final. He became cocky due to his outstanding performance in class and blew off studying for his final exam. That had him stuck on problems for a very long time. He passed, but not with flying colors. It was more like he passed waving a white flag. But, if he is put on a ship, who knows where his skills will take him.
