Campaign:NHNE/People/Stuart Powell
Description
Never destined to become a major player in the family in the business or politics, Stuart Powell did so by marriage and military service. Born in 23, he attended Red Hill University, graduating in 45 and (through family influence) gaining a commission into the expanding Touchdown Army. At the time, the Army had a Colonel, a Major, two Captains and three Lieutenants.
By 49, Stuart was a Captain and by By 53 he was a Major, although by this time the force had expanded to over twice the size it had been when he joined. In 55, Stuart was deployed to the cease-fire line between New Heaven and Shelter with the multi-national force agreed by the New Earth Council. It was here that he met and married the New Fiji officer Captain Kesaia Naiqama.
At the end of 56, he had resigned his commission and settled down in New Fiji as a wheat farmer.
Family
Major Stuart Powell married Captain Kesaia Naiqama of New Fiji in 56. They had 3 children, and adopted one whose parents had been killed on the Shelter border.
