History: Rafael Lennon was born the youngest son of Jack and Sarah Lennon in upstate New York. Their home was filled with love and Sarah told Rafael he could become anything he set out to be at an early age. He and his older sister, Katie, often fought for their parents attention. Katie being daddy's girl and Rafael, his mom's. In high school thought Rafael was introduced to recruiter for the US Air Force. He was enthralled with it because of a love for flying he'd gotten from his grandfather, for whom he was partly named after.  

So when Rafael turned eighteen, he wanted to go on and enlist into the US Air Force but Sarah, once again with her soft spoken voice told him that it would be best to go to college and make something for himself for after his military career. Raf, after thinking it over, did just that. Rafael soon entered Georgetown University. Majoring in advanced Geosciences and minor in computer systems Networking and Systems Development. His time at Georgetown he found that he was his own person, no longer sharing most of the views his family members shared. He defined his own mind more and was able to excel.  

Not getting any time though off for himself, he entered basic training for the air force. Signing up for Intelligence Recon, Surveillance, Electronic Warfare Pilot. Rafael didn't expect it to be easy, the training it was a long three months of physical and mental training. He was issued the rank of Captain since he joined up under the officers training school (OTS).  

One of his first missions was going on a intelligence gathering mission in the Sudan, where his team was intercepted by a band of Sudani. Some of his friends where killed, but most survived. Rafael realized just how real this was, it wasn't a James Bond movie. After a few weeks he decided to continue his education and become a full fledged Intelligence officer for the US Air Force. Continuing that between missions, two years flew by and he soon gradated. Though the specialized training with weapons, mental and physical nearly broke him at times.  

Now at the rank of Major, Rafael Lennon finds himself in a moment of transition. Having been assigned to act as a science officer on the newly colonize Mars Colony. Once he realized that it was going to the chance of a lifetime he found that this was the beginning of the ultimate adventure.
