Personal History Graduating second in his class at OCS and at the top in his specialty, he served with distinction.

In 2394, while serving with the Combat Engineer Platoon known as The Shield, he participated in raids along the Romulan border during the escalation of tensions between the Federation and the Typhon Pact. He sustained a burn that covers the back of his right hand, extending up to his shoulder joint, incurred while holding a door shut to allow civilians to escape. His team and the civilians were cornered by a minor Klingon house attacking a settlement, forcing them into a remote area of their colony. Hill directed his team to set up shield generators, plant mines triggered by Klingon movement, and establish defense turrets for enhanced protection.

Despite their efforts, the defenses failed under a Klingon assault.

Hill had preemptively had his team construct an escape tunnel beneath their bunker, enabling them to flee to a transport site. In a final offensive, the Klingons deployed a continuous disruptor beam to breach the building. With Starfleet technology failing or depleted, the door began to give way. Hill commanded his team to evacuate with the civilians, holding the door against the onslaught until everyone was safe. Suffering severe burns, he eventually retreated, collapsing the tunnel entrance behind him.

He declined dermal regeneration, choosing to keep the scar as a reminder and testament to his experience.

His squad affectionately dubbed him 'Spitfire,' a nickname borne out of respect and camaraderie.

After many years of service with The Shield, Anthony was transferred to The Kingsmen, Combat Engineering Platoon, The Castle, as its Platoon Commanding Officer before being reassigned to Faltan Station as a Combat Engineer when Poseidon Station was shut down. The Kingsmen saw a reduction in size which saw platoon commanding officer places close up.
Service Record 2394 - Received Purple Heart for injuries received in defence of Gamel V. Also receives citation for heroism and bravery for evacuating civilians under fire.
