His father worked as a car salesman and under-the-table mechanic, and his mother was a trauma nurse at Bellevue Hospital. Beckett’s childhood was average for a kid in the city, attending local public schools. He grew up an avid Yankees fan, and overall grew to love baseball, playing on local kids teams. Once out of high school, Beckett had made his decision to go into medicine, but had been debating which college to choose. He’d already been accepted to Hunter College’s medical program when he was approached by a Navy recruiter, impressed with his high school ASVAB scoring. Debating his options, he made the decision to enlist, especially with the promise of tuition assistance once his contract was up. He attended basic training at Naval Station Great Lakes, and went on to pursue a career as a Hospital Corpsman. As part of a volunteer program, he attended the school at the Navy Field Medical Training Battalion, certifying him to deploy with a Marine Corps unit. He was slotted in with the 1st Reconnaissance Battalion in time for its deployment as part of Task Force Leatherneck in Afghanistan. Deployed to Helmand, the unit participated in Operation Khanjar, where the 1st Recon Battalion provided real-time intelligence to Marines participating in the assault phase. Soon after, 1st Recon would be part of the massive Operation Moshtarak, known as the Battle of Marjah, involving some 15,000 ISAF troops. These two operations constituted Beckett’s baptism by fire. Returning from his deployment, Beckett made his decision that he enjoyed being embedded with the FMF, and attended the Basic Recon Course to continue his embedding with 1st Recon. He instead was approached by his CO to talk about returning to a Navy posting to acquire SARC certifications. With a letter of recommendation in-hand, Beckett was slotted into the Special Operations Corpsman Program. After a rigorous course followed up with qualification schools in all sectors of learning, Beckett became a certified SARC and was returned to the 1st Recon Battalion soon thereafter. Finishing out his enlistment by 2012, he re-upped with the understanding he would be attached to the Force Reconnaissance Company. With them, he did two of the standard two-year stretches. Most operations under them were peacetime, although he did undergo two deployments with them, one to Iraq and one to Afghanistan. He finished out his second enlistment by 2017, before finally retiring from the Navy. He no sooner had begun drafting another application to Hunter College before he received an invitation by Centurion to reprise as a medical professional. He’d have been insane to pass over that sort of paycheck, and packed his bags.[/indent] [b]Psychological Profile:[/b] [indent][hider=Corpsman’s Pledge][b]I SOLEMNLY PLEDGE MYSELF BEFORE GOD AND THESE WITNESSES TO PRACTICE FAITHFULLY ALL OF MY DUTIES AS A MEMBER OF THE HOSPITAL CORPS. I HOLD THE CARE OF THE SICK AND INJURED TO BE A SACRED TRUST AND WILL ASSIST THE MEDICAL OFFICER WITH LOYALTY AND HONESTY. I WILL NOT KNOWINGLY PERMIT HARM TO COME TO ANY PATIENT.

I SHALL DO ALL WITHIN MY POWER TO SHOW IN MYSELF AN EXAMPLE OF ALL THAT IS HONORABLE AND GOOD THROUGHOUT MY NAVAL CAREER.[/b][/hider] Beckett is a hard-headed but jovial man first and foremost. His first and foremost concern as a medical professional in the field is his squadmates and patients. His sheer stubbornness leads him to exhaust every ability he has to keep his teammates and, indeed other patients, even EPOWs, alive. His conduct outside of combat is humorous at best, always trying to get a laugh out of his squadmates, albeit if provoked he will go at length to prove his point, a hard-headedness he doesn’t generally show outside of his practice of medicine.[/indent] [b]Equipment:[/b] [indent] - HK416 Carbine w/ 14.5” barrel, Trijicon ACOG sight (4x32, illuminated reticle), AN/PEQ-15 laser-light (IR capable).
