Early Life
Jon was born on December 5th to Harold and Bethany Callard in Sydney, Australia. Even as a child, Jon had issues with growing up in Sydney. He always wrote in his schoolbooks that the city was 'always crowded, always moving' and that there� was 'no time to do anything. There's always someone behind you moving you along'.

To avoid any damage to Jon's mental health and perceptions, his guidance councilor suggested to his parents that a move might be the best thing for Jon. His parents agreed and even had a place where they could go.

Melbourne had far less urban sprawl than Sydney did. Jon found this place rather enjoyable and grew up much better here. He often joked that his life expectancy has risen since the air is cleaner. Jon also saw propoganda for the UNSC's conquest of rebel forces in the Eta Cassiopeiae� system and wanted to join up, but his parents thought against it.
