==History==
===Childhood & Early Life===
Luke was born in the state of Florida in the United States of America. He grew up working with his old man who ran and operated one of the best Italian restaurants in Miami. His father through the restaurants sponsored Luke�s little league football team and was a regular spectator on the sidelines. Luke grew up playing football but he also managed to get good grades throughout his education.

===Starfleet Academy=== 
After finishing up at school Luke became interesting in applying to join Starfleet Academy, he spent a number of months looking at different career opportunities in Starfleet and eventually decided on joining up to the Marine Core where he hoped to become an officer. Luke excelled under the watchful eye of his drill instructors and showed them he was more than capable when handle a wide range of weapons. Luke also took a liking to piloting which he was naturally gifted at. He trained successfully as both a pilot and soldier for three years before deciding to fully concentrate on becoming a soldier. 

===Starfleet Career===
After graduating from the Marine Academy Luke received his first posting on the USS Prelude a Starfleet research vessel. While this wasn't an ideal posting for a marine Luke took it in his stride and took the opportunity to learn from the small number of marines around him, many of whom had served in the recently ended Dominion War. 

He served as a valuable member of the Prelude's crew for just over three years when he was offered a position on the USS Bengal as Deputy Detachment Commander. Luke accepted the position and was promoted to the rank of First Lieutenant as transferred to the Akira Class vessel, where he continued to prove himself as a marine and as an officer.

After two years of excellent service to the Bengal and it's crew Luke was offered command of the Marine detachment on the [[USS Pacifica]] after the depature of First Lieutenant [[Rogal Dorn|Dorn]] from the position. Luke happily took up this new and transferred out to the [[USS Pacifica]].
