Subject: James "Joker" Atlas
CURRENT ASSIGNMENT: Battlestar Sovereign
POSITION: Commander
Rank: Commander
SERIAL NUMBER: 37659124G
PARENTS: Robert and Clarie Atlas
SIBLINGS: Ashley and Hayley Atlas
BIRTH PLACE: Arcadia,Tauron
PERSONAL HISTORY:
I was born into a military family in Arcadia, Tauron where my father was stationed as Captain aboard the Battlestar Achilles. He had served in the first Cylon War and would tell me and my sisters about his experiences which would ultimately be the my reasoning for joining the Colonial Fleet. I was the second of three children; Hayley, myself, and Ashley. When we were young our parents died in an accident and I became very close to my sisters. One of my closest friends on Tauron was Brandon King and we grew up together on Tauron but went our separate ways when we enlisted at 17. Just before the attacks I was assigned to the Colonial Battlestar Vulture as a Viper pilot and excelled as a fighter pilot. I was able to survive the attacks on the Colonies but my family wasn't as lucky. I served on the Vulture throughout the Second Cylon War eventually becoming the XO of the ship. I was transferred to the Battlestar Alliance in the outbreak of the 3rd Cylon War where I served as the XO of the ship until the Battle of the Line when the Alliance was destroyed after making a stand defending the Civilian evacuation of the shipyards. Fleet command saw my command potential and decided to promote me to Commander and with the promotion gave me the Battlestar Sovereign just three weeks after the Battle of the Line. I am currently serving aboard the Battlestar Sovereign.
