Early Life[]
James T. Kirk was born on March 22, 2233 in Iowa on the planet Earth, to parents George and Winona Kirk. At 19, Kirk joined Starfleet Academy and graduated, being the only cadet to ever beat the no-win scenario that was the Kobyashi Maru test. He served under several commanders before becoming commanding officer aboard the Constitution-Class starship, the USS Enterprise, formerly under the command of Capt. Christopher Pike. He commanded the Enterprise admirably during it's final 5 years before it was to be decommissioned. Before this occurred, Kirk rose to the rank of Rear-Admiral.
