The Drake family has had a long history of members of the family serving in various medical establishments as healers, researchers and other medical fields. The tradition of the eldest child becoming a medical Doctor dating back to before the third world war. | |||
As such, for Marcus and his sister Rachel, joining starfleet was almost a foregone conclusion. Marcus had an happy childhood, having no better friend than his own sister and twin, when his brother Robert later came along the 2 developed something of a rivalry with Rachel having to sometimes step in to mediate disputes between the 2. The rivalry remained friendly and despite a few disagreements they remain so and keep in touch to this day. Out of the 3 children Marcus and Rachel became Doctors of Medicine whilst Robert, who also joined starfleet, currently serves as a security officer on board an exploration vessel. | |||
