History
Personal History | Born on board a civilian cargo liner owned and operated by his parents, Daniel Harper Holland had always wanted to be a pilot. He started off flying shuttle runs and then even taking the helm of his family's cargo liner. He wanted more for himself than piloting a civilian ship though and joined Starfleet at the age of 20. He graduated from the Academy and then joined his first ship, the USS Bengal, as a Helmsman and shuttle pilot. He excelled at this and served for a year before earning promotion to Helm Officer and a transfer to the USS Diligent. At the end of that tour of duty he was redeployed back to the USS Bengal as a Helm Officer, but also served a short stint as the Bengal's senior Helm Officer. Recently deployed on board the USS Endeavour, he is looking forward to the permanent role of Chief Helm Officer and extra responsibility, having enjoyed the experience of leading a department on the Bengal. |
