Moose is a big, quiet, nice guy, although most people find his size intimidating. In terms of combat experience, he's logged thousands of hours of combat time, but most of the actual combat was the “hot and heavy” variety. He became a fighter because he wanted to see the galaxy first hand, but also “wants to make a difference.” He was the first in his family to enter service rather than work in an industrial field.
