==History==
Kieran Fredericks was born on Gemenon to then Sergeant Dwayne Fredericks of the Colonial Marines. From an early age, he wanted to wear the globe and anchor. He enlisted in the CMC when he was seventeen. During Boot Camp his leadership abilities were apparent, and his company commander recommended him for OCS. He was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant of Infantry and was posted aboard the Battlestar Orion. After his tour here, he was promoted to First Lieutenant and sent to SpecOps, where he attended the Pathfinder School, Scout Sniper Training, and other special operations oriented schools. Upon completion of this training, which lasted a year, he was sent to the Battlestar Pegasus, where he led Admiral Cain's marines for three years. After this he was promoted to Captain, and was posted to Fleet Command on Caprica as a company commander with the base's security detachment. But he didn't like duty on the ground; he wanted steel decks beneath his feet. So he asked for a transfer, and was posted aboard the Battlestar Athena as Marine Detachment CO.
