Desperate to leave the vicious cycle of generations on public assistance, he joins the military. Andrew Grayson is the main character he grew up in a welfare section of Boston. In Terms of Enlistment, by Marko Kloos, the military is far more than security it is the force that keeps the homeworld (earth) and colonies safe. He’s a military guy who is there for security, and my character is the security chief, because someone ought to be in charge of that when landing on uncivilized planets. In my own Trinity on Tylos my main character, Major Venice Dylenski, has a military background, but I viewed her as a bit like “Captain” Miles Standish might be viewed in American history.
Perhaps due to watching the exploits of astronauts with military titles in my youth, I still believe that the military will play some role when (or if) mankind actually goes into space and establishes colonies on other worlds. Okay, I’ve never “served” as military folks put it, but I really enjoy reading about the exploits of those who have done so.
