History and Experiences Which have Affected Character Greatly: Sir Henry is a product of the Standish public school system (which is private) and the best universities they can offer. He is further more a veteran of the Standish armed forces having served with distinction in the Standish Defense Force. Like his Father he has followed that career with a try into politics.
       He is currently rising in the ranks and has been appointed to the Standish Mission to the Federation Council as their non-voting Representative. He is free to lobby and even debate in council, but not being a full member Standish does not yet have a vote. As he would say of himself: "All Rothingworth men are self man men, even if we are given to using the same plans."
Position: As an Earth colony in an exposed position, and with no exploration resources of its own Standish is firmly in the guns and butter camp, and more guns please. The raiders are constantly eying Standish. Standish is of the opinion that the only thing stopping them are the Excelsior class starships in their fleet. To a point they are right. They are lobbing hard for the frigates Starfleet is currently surplussing with the disodium ships coming on line.
