==Biography==
===Pre-Series===
Born in the United States sometime in 1948, Kilbride grew up in Oregon although if it's not known if he has any siblings.
During his childhood, Kilbride befriended a young boy named Raph Sakamoto, the two becoming best friends with Raph's family often making meals for the Kilbride every Sunday.
One day, young Kilbride asked his parents why this happened with his parents explaining that Japanese-Americans would be detained because of World War II. This ultimately happened to the Sakamoto family, their house being raided which forced Kilbride's unnamed father, disgusted by racism to begin protecting the house with his shotguns, something he did for two years while Kilbride himself grew to admire his father for his compassionate attitude. 
He later joined the Navy and rose to the rank of Admiral before retiring.
During his naval service, Kilbride was married twice, the second marriage to a woman named Elizabeth and producing a son, Alex with Kilbride often away most of the time and thus missing out as his son grew up.
As a result, Kilbride and Alex became distant from one another, the rift lasting for ten years, something Kilbride regrets as Alex is a former attorney with an ongoing drug problem.
