BIOGRAPHY
BACKGROUND AS OF 2186
Dima Vesnikev was born in the Siberian city of Norilsk in Krasnoyarsk Krai region of Russia, November 4th in the year of 2126. His family lived in the nation for a further five years after his birth, deteriorating conditions led to his family to seek emigration to the United States, a difficult task for them. But his fathers knowledge of Engineering and more importantly UPP vehicles built in the city sped up the process. They were relocated to Luna and found themselves integrating into a European community in the less maintained, run down sections of the Colony. Initial integration is marked as difficult from statements made by family members, neighbours and the subject them self, thanks to Russian heritage. However his father, mother and elder brother all found their place as a workshops Senior Engineer, EVA Technician and Junior Engineer, respectfully.
Dima however found difficulty in his schooling, particularly in his high-school years. Despite above average grades and securing a placement on his high-school's football team (offensive line, from statements) he was frequently involved in increasingly violent confrontations with fellow students, particularly over his Russian heritage. The frequency of these confrontations increased with the rise of hostilities with the UPP in the frontier. From statements gathered from educational administration and persons who knew him, he had aspirations for a similar field as his father and brother, particularly toward Armat Arms. During the last year of his schooling in the waning months of the final semester he was involved in a serious confrontation resulting in the hospitalization of another student and a long term suspension, leading to his targeted engineering institution to deny him, alongside any other reputable university. This lead to him seeking service in the United States Colonial Marine Corps, as part an escape from his current life and to prove to his fellow Americans he was in fact a patriot.
SERVICE SUMMARY AS OF 2186
Vesnikev enlisted with parental signing at the age of seventeen[Year:2143] after confirming the completion of his Highschool education. He completed his U.S.C.M.R.T Course at the Mare Crisium facility. After Graduation, noted for above-average scores across the board in fitness, marksmanship, discipline and leadership capability he transferred to Earth to undertake his S.O.I at Camp Geiger, which he completed with similar above-average, though not beyond norm, scores. Completing his training he was assigned as a Private First Class to the [now disbanded] Rubble Rats [Herculis: 3rd Battalion, 4th Brigade] , whom he served with for the first fourteen years of his service, before transfer to the Falling Falcons after casualties and loss of key personnel during extended fighting actions on BG-449 lead to the units disbandment and breaking down of resources into others.
Service Record 3rd Battalion, 4th Brigade "Rubble Rats":
-Assigned to 9th Company, 4th Platoon, Squad 4-2 Callsign Bravo, held rank of Private First Class (PFC). [November 10th, 2144]
-9th Company maintains posting at Herculis Station Garrison until December 1st. Reassigned to Long Patrol. [December 1st, 2144]
At the time of his transfer, Vesnikev held the rank of a non-specialized Corporal awaiting transfer to back to Earth for Advanced Weapons Training after receiving his promotion during deployment. Consistent back to back response actions and long term combat missions over the next three years stunted this heavily, however. With requests for transfer denied under requirement for experienced manpower to bolster the new continuous waves of fresh PFCs being loaded onto the vessel at each docking with the Falcon's home station, Chinook.
RELATIONS AS OF 2186
-Barnabus Jones: I call em Barny. Old friend, hell of a Marine, I wouldn't hesitate to die beside this man.
-Phil "Convict" Kaegan: A competent freshie in the Falcons. He's a good kid, fights hard. I see a good career ahead of him.
-Oleg "Ice" Korolenko: Lots of Slavs in the Corps these days, is good to hear the old mother-tongue once in a while. One of the best.
-Kyle "Ajax" Willson: Not the sharpest crayon in the box, I call him butterfingers for a reason. But he's not a bad marine by any standards. Don't give him grenades.
-Vanessa "Pocket" Miller: Very dependable to do whatever job they are assigned. Rare breed of competence onboard.
-Hans(z?) "Wulfe" Mueller: Not a fan of Krauts myself, no reason really, but he's efficient, to the point, does his god damn job and rarely shoots me in the back. Makes him a miracle in the Corps.
