!Admiral Jack Rackham Formerly commander of the Heavy Cruiser ESS Agamemnon, formerly home to the 130th Regiment. (now temporary home to the 256th Regiment). Rackham is one of the Earth Empire's finest naval officers, with a reputation for fairness towards his friends and ruthlessness towards his enemies. Not an officer to suffer fools at all, his somewhat robust attitude to bureaucrats and timeservers has made his promotion slower than his abilities and record might suggest. Hobbies include Scottish country dancing, fine art appreciation and classic music of the 20th century. !!Biography **3155** Born in Zone 69, Southern Brit-Cit, Earth, Sol System. **3177** Educated at Brit-Cit Central University, to Level 10, and at Lhasa University, Tibet. **3179** Completed initial Naval Induction Course **3180** Officer Training Completed at Naval Academy **3181** Joined first ship in Quadrant 2 as Ensign on the heavy cruiser ESS Hyperion. **3182** Promoted to Lieutenant, posted to Quadrant 0 on the battleship ESS Lloyd George. **3185** Promoted to Lieutenant Commander and posted to Quadrant 1 on the carrier ESS Ho Chi Minh.
