History

Alton Travis Jackson (b. June 15, 2374) is a Starfleet Operations Officer. He was born on the Starship USS Gotham to Commander Felix Jackson and Lieutenant Sharon Lincoln-Jackson, their only child.

Alton grew up on the Gotham. Soon after his birth, he was placed in the ship’s day care center while his parents worked. Once he was 5, he started attending the ship’s school, but soon after, his parents transferred to the USS Kennedy. His father assumed command of the Kennedy, while his mother was promoted to Lieutenant Commander and assumed the position of the ship’s Chief Medical Officer.

STARFLEET ACADEMY

Because of Alton’s excellent grades on the Kennedy, he was accepted to Starfleet Academy on an early admittance on 2378. His work ethic enabled him to achieve excellent grades and commendations. He saved up his leave time, so that in his 3rd year, he was able to travel to the Kennedy and stay with his parents. Because of his physique, he was recruited for many of the Academy’s sports teams. He chose wresting, martial arts and archery.

He was assigned to the USS Yorktown for field studies. He was assigned to various sections as part of his duties as Operations Officer. The work was hard, but he accepted the challenge and did well.

He graduated in 2382 in the top 10% of his class. His grades were consistantly near the top every year, earning him Commandants Awards. He was awarded a degree in ship’s operations.

USS Bataan

Upon graduation, Cadet Jackson was assigned to the USS Bataan. He performed his duties well, and he was able to continue his interpersonal studies. Based on his performance, the Chief Operations Officer, Lt. Commander Thomas Lundgren, with the captain’s permission, assigned him to lead the Delta shift.

USS James T. Kirk

In 2385 he transferred to the Kirk seeking the Assistant Chief Operations position. He didn’t  initially get it until 2388, when the Operations Chief transferred. On the Kirk he also started taking on Engineering duties, as well as taking command classes. He knew he wanted to be a first officer or even captain someday, and took on the responbility of the Gamma Shift bridge watch. Jackson stayed on the Kirk, achieving a promotion to Lieutenant Junior Grade, until 2399 when a position opened on the USS Altari.
