Editing Carson Peters (section)

==Overview == 

He found work with a security firm, which was contracted to help secure freight vessels travelling throughout the solar system. Not having any experience in this type of work, it was rough to begin with, no one seemed interested in training him, in how to secure the vessels if plundered. He continued in the job for 2 years, every job, he wondered whether anything would happen, but nothing ever did. He briefly considered applying to the Starfleet Academy, but dismissed it as a lot of the colleagues he had at the security contractor were ex-Starfleet who consistently bemoaned the direction the agency had taken in the year’s past. Carson begins an apprenticeship with “Flying Arms Corp,” and during the next 4/5 years completes the apprenticeship and begins to climb the ladder of leadership. The company deals with moving people, products- generally anything- around the planet. He draws upon his experience with the security contractors and learns more about route planning, securing ships as well as flight experience in small spaceships. Over the years, everywhere he turns (it seems to him) there are adverts, signs, recruiting stations etc for Starfleet. At the age of 25 he makes the decision to join the academy, with the idea that he could gain valuable new skills and life experience. This decision is made after hearing about his grandfather’s death, on returning home for the funeral and helping his mother clean out his house. During that process he found his grandfather’s (Liam Peters) old Starfleet uniform, medals and personal photos of his time in the service.
