===== Career History =====
=== Admiral and High Admiral ===
He was head of the Gattian armed forces before the formation of the Alliance. After its formation he was appointed High Admiral (the highest rank in the SWDA.) He helped form and train the first combined fleets and was critical in efforts to obtain professionally built warships, such as the CVI Starbuck. 

=== Chairmanship of the Seven Worlds Defense Alliance ===
He was elected Chairman in 3207.231. His replacement as High Admiral was Hermione Xen. As Chairman, he has launched the anti-piracy operation Operation Wolfhound, which rapidly became an intervention culminating in a battle on 3207.386 at the Lon Chaney system. He dispatched a C5A to Kami to assist in reparing its orbital, later called Operation Friend in Need. He strengthened the Alliance navy with professionally built warships, especially in planetary defense, where he replaced all C5As with DDIs. On 3207.320 he suggested that the SWDA should sign several international treaties, which ultimatly lead to the [[Lamster Summit Meeting]] on 3208.023.
 
=== Chairmanship of the Free Worlds Alliance ===
As the Chairman of the FWA, he negotiated and signed a non-aggresion pact with the MAFC and later one with the UoX. He later launched Operation Panama, an anti-piracy sweep through neighboring systems. On 3209.034, he announced the formation of the FWA's first military shipyard, the first to be built by a minor power and the first outside of Quadrant 1. He also masterminded the creation of the Interplanetary Interdiction Missile (All information about IPIMs is currently classified, save that they are an anti-piracy weapon.) 
Jackson has supported the FWA's traditionally close ties with the UoX. He negotiated and signed a non-aggression treaty with the MAFC's Q1 governor, close. He later signed a non-aggression and friendship treaty with the UoX. He is still in negotiations with the EE over a non-aggression treaty. He dispatched military advisors to Charley and T20.
His popularity has risen steadily throughout his Chairmanship. He has remained a commited Federalist, championing the cause of reforming the Free Worlds Alliance into a closer union.
