PERSONAL HISTORY: James was born into a military family in Arcadia, Tauron where his father was stationed as Captain aboard the Battlestar Achilles. He had served in the first Cylon War and would tell James and my sisters about his experiences which would ultimately lead him to join the Colonial Fleet. James was the second of three children and the only son in the Atlas family. When they children were young both parents died in an accident and James became very close to his two sisters. On his seventeenth birthday, James enlisted into the Colonial Fleet. He graduated from the Tauron Flight Academy 12th in his class. Shortly after he enrolled in Caprica War College but dropped out after one semester because he thought trying to learn tactics in a class room was useless. After dropping out, he was sent to Tinker Airbase on Tauron for a short time. Just before the attacks, James was assigned to the Colonial Battlestar Vulture as a Viper pilot and excelled as a fighter pilot. He was able to survive the attacks on the Colonies but his family wasn't as lucky. James has served in every op that the Vulture has jumped into, from the short lived battle between the Vulture and Cerberus to the ground ops on Gemenon. James is fiercely loyal to his crew and sees them as his only family. While on leave after a crippling battle, James purposed to Cherise and the two were married shortly after. James has served on the Battlestar Vulture for his entire military career. He started as a Cadet in training and rose through the ranks to become the Commander of the Battlestar Vulture.
