Background Information
Erhardt Meissner was born and raised on Hamburg, a not too hospitable world with a struggling economy. As he saw no chance for himself in the rows of Republican shipping he enlisted to the military where he served in the lower ranks without leaving too much of an impression as fighter pilot. Once the war with Liberty broke loose the military deployed more and more capital ships to counter Libertys war fleets. In the wage of this they searched for young officers capable of commanding a warship and that is where Meissner shined. In the tests he had very promising results and accordingly he was assigned to the RNC-Seydlitz, a Donau class cruiser, shortly after.
Later on, as the war against Liberty was over, he was reassigned to Dresden to bolster the Altenburg fleet where the ship gathered experience in the irregular kind of warfare the Hessians use.
Later on the Seydlitz was moved again, this time to the Kampfgruppe Schwerin, a battlegroup wich's only task was to spearhead assaults into Omicron Xi, in wich Meissner served as Kapitän.
He stayed stationed on the Scherwin until recently, when he along his crew was offered to serve in the main fleet of Rheinland by its current Admiral, Driedrick Sterr, an offer he accepted happily.
The Seydlitz remained on Battleship Schwerin but with orders to prepare for longer expeditions in the Sigma cluster rather than the Omicrons, as in the wage of new tensions with the GMG the military deemed it necessary to hold a force ready to be deployed in case of an escalation.
