adf medic here! hal's still on active duty with the navy, stationed on terminus while he's assigned to the endeavor — between missions he works as a paramedic/emt, so he's all over the place and available for encounters of all stripes! he enlisted when he was 18, is a golden boy good soldier pro-alliance idealist with soft war poet vibes, loves the navy 🥰 and has just ... had a very different experience than poor jase lmao. depending on what branch jase was in, they could have overlapped at some point during their service!
