=/\= Personal Background=/\=

Joshua grew up in the small town of Huntsville, Alabama as a son of a Marine, born to a family based in Military occupation stemming back all the way to Earth’s World War 2… His father died when he was but a young boy at the battle of Wolf 359.  Having 2 brothers, he had to spend all his time out on the family farm.  He and his brother, Timothy, were the men of the household, they looked after their mother, and their younger brother Danny.  

Hitting early adolescence, Joshua’s muscle structure was quite advanced compared to boys his age, having known nothing but physical labor his entire young life.  

12 hours a day, 7 days a week, just about every day of the year, his skin, permanently tanned from the sun and his muscles completely matured, to date he is slightly stronger than the average human simply because of what he was forced to endure.  He was a hard worker by day, and an aspiring astronomer by night. Laying on his back, hands folded behind his head, on hay bails in the middle of a field, miles from any city lights, he, over time dreamt of one day exploring the stars as his father did, and his grandfather before him.  Being sent through school was more of a pain then a learning experience.  His mind, always wondering, always grinding out possibilities of meeting other life.  He was caught daydreaming in class so much that he was kicked out of his middle school, and was forced to enroll in another.  He was also made to see a counselor on the side, to tone down his inhibitions and aspirations, to cut down on his daydreaming.  

At the age of 17, his dreams got the better of him, and Josh enlisted in the Starfleet Marine Corps as the majority of his family has done.  He passed recruit training with flying colors, to be sent off to J1 space station in the Guantanamo system of the Ares Expanse, courtesy of the 144th Marine Div. McHale was in the 27th Sniper Team, containing 5 other soldiers in the 74th Strike Unit.  Spending 4 years as an enlisted man, and reaching the rank of corporal, he decided to reach higher for an officer’s commission, and packed his things for 4 long years at the academy. McHale stuck out, due to his age, he was a bit older than most other cadets in the academy, though most of which had no prior training as a military soldier.  McHale was given advanced training in Administration, Engineering, Diplomacy, Leadership, and Small Unit Tactics.  Prior to joining the Academy, Josh was apart of a Scout/Sniper platoon stationed on J1 as a quick deployment team to the Guantanamo system… His weapon preference is a type 4 phaser (sniper) rifle. (his old sergeant used to allow traditional weapons as well, when this was in effect, McHale would use the 21st century m40a3 rifle.)  While stationed in the Ares Expanse with the 144th, he was awarded the Meritorious Unit Citation, Meritorious service ribbon, the Good Conduct Ribbon, the Combat Action Ribbon, and The Purple Heart for being wounded in the battle of G-5 (“Carey”, Guantanamo system).

After Graduating from the Academy, Lieutenant McHale has been assigned to the USS Arcadia, NCC-1742-E, where he will serve with a Marine Detachment under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Quest…..
