Date: Tue, 4 Feb 1997 03:19:54 -0500 (EST) FROM THE GM: Here's a background report on Admiral Jaegar, CMO of the Stealth and field commander of Shadow Ops.
=============================================================
Name: Admiral Erik Jaegar
Race: Human
Age: 58
Birthplace: Mars Colony, Terran System
Physical Data:
Height: 6'0" Weight: 190
Sex: Male Race: Human
Hair: Gray Eyes: Blue
Family:
Father: Maximillian
Mother: Margaret
Spouse: Cynthia Nordstrom
Children: Kyle (son, 23), Elizabeth (daughter, 25)
Personality: Erik Jaegar is a jovial, yet stern officer. He is easy to get along with, but is serious about his duty. He expects a great deal from his officers and doesn't like excuses for failure.
Description: Tough-looking caucasian male with stone-like features, a square jaw and a stocky build. Beginning to gain a slight paunch around his midsection as he nears 60 years of age, but still tries hard to stay in shape.
History: Born on the Mars Colony in 2315, Erik Jaegar was raised by his parents Max and Margaret. His father was a civilian police officer at the colony and his mother worked as an engineer at Starfleet's Utopia Planatia Shipyards on Mars.
Erik joined the Federation Marines when he was 18 (in 2333) so he could leave Mars and see the galaxy. He fought in several skirmishes with the Klingons (before the treaty was finalized) and the Romulans. While serving as a Marine he entered officer training school and enjoyed it so much he steered toward a career in command.
Commissioned as a corporal after training, Jaegar became involved in the Federation Marines Recon Forces -- a special forces unit which also participated in black ops missions against the Federation's enemies. He began to see real action when the Federation went to war with the Cardassians and worked his way through the ranks over the years.
In 2338, at the age of 23, Lt. Jaegar met a young woman named Cynthia Nordstrom when his team was sent to rescue a group of Federation citizens being held hostage by Orion Pirates. Cynthia, an archaeologist, was one of the hostages and she and Jaegar fell in and were married a year after the rescue mission. The two went on to have two children.
Most of Jaegar's missions over the years remain classified, but in 2358, while serving as a colonel in the Federation Marines, Colonel Jaegar accepted a role with Starfleet Intelligence during the war between the Federation and the Cardassians. Jaegar was commissioned as a Starfleet officer and given the rank of rear admiral, then placed in command of all black ops missions on the Cardassian front.
Again, most of his missions remain classified, but he is believed to be responsible for coordinating the destruction of more than 50 Cardassian weapon design/construction facilities, 13 supply depots, two metagenic weapon depots and is rumored to have sanctioned the assassination of Kaylan Adan Dutak -- a Cardassian admiral who was poised to seize control of Cardassia Prime in a suspected military coup. If Dutak had seized power, the war with the Cardassians probably would have continued for many more years.
In 2370, Rear Admiral Jaegar was recruited into Shadow Ops as the field commander of the covert operations organization. His latest promotion was to the rank of Vice Admiral in 2372.
