Background: Born in Dunfermline, Scotland in 1973. Graduated from high school and worked for father’s engineering company. Left after 6 years to follow a career in computing, but got bored and went back to Dad’s company after 1 year. Has an unmistakable scar from below left eye to bottom of left ear following a minor disagreement about the virtues of Glasgow Rangers. Drives a BMW 316 which was a 21st birthday present. Picked up his military type background from 5 years in the Black Watch TA. The time between missions was a time to rest and heal for Angus, or at least it should have been. He decided to fly down to meet up with some old ex-army friends who now ran a tourist venture in Belize. Having served there with the British Army they had seen a opportunity for them to fill. They ran a fairly successful scuba diving school, taking the tourists out to the keys to swim round the coral. Angus thought this too good an opportunity to miss and learned the basics of scuba diving, speed boat driving and a bit of first aid, figuring he should know this after the damage he took in Ottawa. At the quieter moments, he and his mates would practice shooting tin cans. This and the shooting practice he had on the last mission, his pistol skill improves. After 3 weeks, Angus returned to Orion and books himself on a driving course, improving his car driving skills.
