His father was away a lot, in the transport section, shipping supplies to where they were needed, but there was lots of support from the other soldiers families. Since he likes traveling, he became a tour guide, but when the market flopped he lost his business, so he went back to what he knew best, the army. Now he is back on the street again.

Motivation - Originally, to be the best. Now, to do what needs doing.

The details will change according to how the campaign evolves.
