Miles Edward O'Brien was born on Earth in
Ireland. He has a unique talent for all things mechanical and so studied
advanced engineering at the Academy. He has served on the USS Rutledge with
Captain Benjamin Maxwell as tactical officer. He never forgot the encounter they
had on Setlik III with the Cardassians. It left him shaken and gave him a deep
hatred for the Cardassians for what they did, and that he had to kill to defend
the survivors. After the Setlik III massacre, he was reassigned to the
Enterprise. First, he served as Bridge Conn, then he was promoted to Transporter
Chief and he became a transporter specialist. When Miles was on board the
Enterprise, he married Keiko Ishikawa (introduced to him by Lt Cmdr Data) and
they had a daughter, Molly (delivered by Worf!). Finally, he was assigned to
Deep Space 9 as Chief Operations Officer. |
