Walter G. Gibbs

Hailing from a Starfleet family, Walter grew up on starbases, ships, and the occasional planetary base. His mother, Master Chief Muriel Genard, excelled in administration. While not as glamorous as any of the traditional specialties, Starfleet is still a bureaucracy that runs on paper and forms.

Walter showed an aptitude towards the science and Muriel pulled some strings and called in favors to ensure her son attended the Academy. He was a adequate cadet and earned above average marks. Not enough to get his top pick of assignments, but he was still excited to have earned placement aboard Starbase 47. Walter worked hard and distinguished himself enough that when his choice for assignments returned he was granted a slot aboard a Mythology class explorer.
