| Personal History | Johnathan "Jack" MacGyver was born on the 22nd of May in Sydney Australia. Both of his parents were in Starfleet, his mother in Science and his father in Engineering, and quite often either parent was off on assignment while the other took time off to raise him. When he was eight years old, both of his parents were killed in an accident when the Ship they were both on suffered a Warp core breach. His mother had gone up to meet his father in Earth orbit onboard the ship where he was serving as an engineer. The investigation showed that the Warp core had a micro fracture that hadn't been detected during the ships last maintenance overhaul and was ruled an accident, though many of the families of the killed blamed the engineers for not picking it up, including Jack, though he never told anyone. After that, Jack was raised by his maternal grandfather Harry Hayes in San Francisco. When Jack was around the age of twelve, his grandfather started to notice that he would often stay home after school rather then hang our with friends, so in an attempt to cheer him up, his grandfather started him on a project to rebuild an old motorcycle that had been passed down their family for generations. while it wasn't in the best of shapes, it kicked over with a bit of effort. After leaving high school Jack attended Starfleet Academy for two years of an Engineering course before dropping out to join the Starfleet Marine Corp as an Explosive Ordinance Specialist. He wanted to help people who were facing real problems out on the frontier of Federation space instead of solving theoretical problems. If only he'd kept at it for a little while longer. After his training, Jack was deployed to the Bajoran sector to help deal with a few colony problems and there he served for three years, during which time he met and befriended a brash sniper named Jessica Dawson. When they were eventually rotated out of the Bajoran sector, Jack chose not to reenlist as is enlistment had expired and returned to the Sol system to attend the Starfleet Technical Services Academy on Mars to complete his engineering training and enter Starfleet service as an enlisted Crewman instead of an Officer. While he was on Mars, Jack learned that his Grandfather had died in his sleep while he'd been away on Bajor and he'd missed the funeral. |
