Background:

Matthew (more commonly known as “Junior”) entered Starfleet academy aged 16 and struggled through many of his academic exams, he successfully completed his Academy training and was assigned to the USS Ironclad, where he excelled at his work and further studies. After a number of years, Matthew was promoted to Commander and transferred to the USS Forrester as Chief Medical Officer. Until then his service record was that of a model officer.

Since then, Matthew had a significant number of blemishes on his record including being declared AWOL from the USS Forrester, assaulting a senior officer (whilst assigned to USS Athena), being declared AWOL from the USS Odin & finally being discharged for Espionage on behalf of the Romulan Empire (whilst aboard USS Semmelweis).

Grimshaw was eventually arrested shortly after his father’s death in the Operations Centre on Starbase Magellan before being imprisoned at the Arloff IX Penal Colony. Grimshaw was the only survivor that was picked up by the USS Swift after the colony was attacked & destroyed by Romulans.

Medical Evaluation:

At his last evaliation, Matthew is surprisingly good physical health given what had happened at Arloff IX and simply noted that he was underweight for his height.

Physiological Evaluation:

During his time in prison, Matthew saw many counsellors who attempted to find out what went wrong with Matthew’s seemingly spotless record. Several have suggested that the loss of a close friend has tipped Matthew, however they believe he has now got over this loss. At no stage has any counsellor even suggested that Matthew is unfit for duty - although he clearly lacks the discipline required to be competant officer.
