HISTORY:

    Born New Years Day, 2386.  The fourth son, in a family of seven brothers.  Older brothers Rick, John and Trevor are 6, 4 and 2 years older, respectively. Younger brother Brad is 2 years younger, Daniel 4 years younger, and Robert 6 years younger. A close knit family, the Halsted brothers played a lot together. Carver insisted on joining his older brothers in games when he was very young, and as Rick and John left for Academy, Carver took on a leadership role among the brothers bringing Daniel and Robert into their games as soon as they were old enough to catch and throw.

    Rick was the first to enter Starfleet. Their father had been a playwright, whose plays were in production throughout the Federation worlds. His stature in the arts had afforded him a lifestyle that had been frowned upon in some circles, but he never apologized for accepting the rewards and benefits bestowed upon him by grateful patrons. Rick loved his father, and accepted the lifestyle Justin chose for the family, but Rick felt a need to give something back, to answer the call to provide a service for the betterment of all, and chose Starfleet as his vehicle. Rick and John had discussed his desire, and when Rick was 20, the four oldest sons had taken a fishing trip with their father in Northern Wisconsin, and Rick explained to his father that he felt a need, a desire, to enlist. Justin gave Rick his blessing. His path was his own path, and he didn't want to discourage his sons from finding their own path. He was proud of Rick's decision. John announced he also intended to apply to Starfleet.  Trevor said he wanted to play collegiate sports, and then maybe turn pro. On that trip, Carver was 14 years old, and thinking about girls, lures, and fish, and not necessarily in that order. As Carver got older, Rick was making a name for himself in Starfleet. After Rick graduated from Academy, he had interned on a starship in Engineering. At present, he is a Lt. Commander, currently assigned to Starbase Sarmento, as Chief of Engineering. John had found a niche in Starfleet diplomatic relations, and after graduation from Academy, accepted assignment to the Diplomatic Corps.  John is in the final year of his internship program at present on Vulcan, and is expecting an appointment to Romulus when he completes his internship. Trevor went on full scholarship to the Klingon Institute for Literal Learning, which was referred to locally as the KILL School. He is there to be a goalie for the KILL soccer team, and he majors in communication. He has eight years of eligibility left, and has played on two championship teams in his first four seasons, as KILL won the Klingon Empire Collegiate Championships two of the last four years. Younger brother Brad is serving as a security officer aboard the Klingon IKC K 'ravnor, as part of an exchange program with the Klingons. 

He is often jokingly referred to as 'Trevor Halstead's uncoordinated brother', but is actually well-liked by the K'Vort class crew.   Brother Daniel is about to graduate Starfleet Academy. Brother Bob is awaiting word on his application to Starfleet Marines. As much as Carver liked soccer, he was not good enoughto be considered for scholarship. He had watched his two oldest brothers progress through Starfleet Academy and embark on two different career paths, and saw Trevor leave Earth for a soccer scholarship at the Klingon Kill School. Carver, without much conviction, and no athletic scholarship offers, applied for admission to Starfleet. No doubt based upon the records of his older brothers, and his own aptitude test performance, he was admitted. Reminded that his background helped get him in, but his performance would dictate how far he'd go, Carver really applied himself at Academy. He graduated in the top 3% of his class, and was assigned upon graduation to an internship on the USS Ottawa. Upon completion of his ten month tour on the Ottawa, he was assigned to the USS Tacoma, in the Operations Department.  After two and a half years serving in OPS, he requested a leave of absence. He was unsure Starfleet was what he wanted to do with hislife. After twelve months off, he was faced with reactivating his commission or resigning. After twelve months, he was ready to come back. He was reassigned to the Tacoma. That was in 2409.  Two years later Starfleet ordered the Tacoma decommissioned. The starship was returned to Starbase Sarrento, where the crew was to await reassignment. The Tacoma was headed to Utopia Shipyards for recycling. Carver got to spend some time with his brother John while awaiting orders.
