Age: 31
Gender: Male
Social Status: Spacenoid
Rank: E-5 / Petty Officer Second Class (PO2)
Appearance:
Putnam is a 5’11” broad-shouldered Spacer, reasonably built but focused more on tone rather than mass in the muscles, which are more built along the core, upper body, and legs. His hair is a darker sandy blonde, matched with two pale blue eyes and a wide jaw line. His hair is styled short and well in regulation, matched with a patch of stubble of varying length. His nose is slightly crooked, with signs of former blunt force trauma, and a tattoo of the Earth Federation star in black on the upper left of his back.

Biography:
Putnam was born in 0068 on the colony Nassau, part of Side 4. A victim of the Thunderbolt Sector, Putnam (then 11 years old) and his family were evacuated with the rest of Nassau during the One Week Battle, then resettled on Side 1. The evacuation and destruction of Nassau followed by the enlistment and even conscription of older members of his community (leading to the death of most during the battles for the Thunderbolt Sector) left a major mark on Putnam’s psyche, leading him to himself enlist in 0086, being trained as a mobile suit pilot in the EFSF.
Piloting a GM III throughout the First Neo Zeon war, his service record was largely without distinction, credited with three kills and seven assists throughout his deployment. Assigned thereafter to the Alexandria-class cruiser Actium, Putnam flew peacetime sorties with the 88th Fleet. During the Second Neo Zeon War, Putnam was scrambled along with the rest of the 88th to assist Londo Bell at the Battle of Axis. During the fighting, he earned ace-in-a-day status, downing five suits and getting credited for nine assists.
Thereafter he remained with the 88th Fleet, upgrading to a Jegan and performing sorties against Sleeves hit-and-run attacks, notably being assigned to maintain the quarantine of Industrial 7 during the Third Neo Zeon war, although seeing no actual combat. In the aftermath of the Laplace Incident, he and most other present pilots were grounded and rigorously evaluated, relegated to garrison duties in the meantime. During his evaluation period, Putnam was handpicked by the special operations unit Anthem.
