There are plenty of notable humans.

Pre-Alliance Earth

Samuel Grey Feather (1949 - 2021)

Samuel Gris Diaz-Carmona, also known as "The Father of PMCs", was an immigrant along with his family to the United States from Spain, Samuel and his family were assigned the surname of "Feather" to better Americanize and suit the family's integration into the country. Samuel and his family grew up in the period of tension during the Cold War. Prior to the start of the Sino-Soviet War, Samuel was drafted at the age of 18 for active service in the United States Army, and provided combat support for Chinese resistance fighters against Soviet invaders in Northwestern China. Two brief tours and an honorable discharge later with the final rank of Staff Sergeant, Samuel became an entrepreneur and "private security organizer", considering his distaste for the Sino-Soviet conflict and disappointed that the thematic of the Cold War, that being conflict deterrence, should've prevented the war from flaring up in the first place. This set of opinions would soon change with the advent of the Proxy Wars.

Alongside his unit and several other trusted men within his company, Samuel formed the Grey Feathers, initially a local private security firm with a fair deal of military and gunsmith contacts in addition to licensing as a legal private security unit. The Grey Feathers' first jobs were particularly geared protecting transport trucks for high-profile banks and other low-key organizations moving valuable possessions.

The organization soon grew in national strength, numbers and fame by the 80s, with Samuel at its head planning for more international involvement. The SGF would commonly receive contracts from steel and oil companies across the globe for asset protection deals, and would pay very lucratively. The SGF would be wealthy enough by the end of the 80s to be able to fund its own Research and Development department for new equipment and weaponry to give its mercenaries an advantage over other PFs.

By the 90s, the SGF found itself being fielded by the United States government by way of operation leasing contracts. The employees within SGF found itself taking higher risks but with markedly higher pay than when they were fielded by corporations for simple asset security jobs, further fueling the coffers of the SGF.

By the war's end, his net worth was approximately $7.0 billion USD, and was declared Man of the Decade by TIME magazine in 2010.

Sol Alliance

Kambiz Entezam (2220-2279)

Kambiz Entezam, hailing from the Earth continent of Africa, was the Sol Alliance Prime Minister from 2260 to 2270. He was voted in prior to New Years, in September of 2260. Months into his first term came the Second Great Depression, a misfortune that many never saw coming. During these turbulent times, Prime Minister Entezam passed the bill to funnel credits to Zeng-Hu and Einstein Engines, successfully saving the companies and allowing them to swallow up the smaller one which received no bail outs.

Kambiz is often attributed to starting the First Interstellar War, thus earning much vilification throughout his terms and later on in life. Kambiz signed a bill allowing all non-Sol colonies in the Sol Alliance space to allow higher taxes and raise tariffs on shipping in a attempt to bail out the economy. This move caused many outliers of the Alliance to begin to criticize and decry the Sol Alliance's authority on humanity. Upon hearing that many outlier colonies banded together and refused to pay tax, Kambiz ordered the navy to be expanded and to arrest any civilian leaders who refused to pay their tariffs. These acts eventually led to the Jamestown massacre and subsequent war by the freshly formed Coalition of Colonies.

Upon the end of his second term, Kambiz left office seen as a farce. Much of the Sol Alliance resented him for what was seen as inept handling of the Second Great Depression and Coalition situation. After the outbreak of the First Interstellar War, Kambiz was shot in a home invasion by a Coalition sympathizer and buried with the fullest honours of the Sol Alliance.

Kambiz is often seen as a failure to the modern day, and a symbol of Sol Alliance Imperialism, aggression, and totalitarianism.

Governor Richard Hawkins (2231-2267)

Richard Hawkins, a Jamestown native, was the Governor of the colony of Jamestown and a martyr of the Coalition of Colonies which had formed after his death. Upon hearing of new taxes and tariffs to be placed on all non Sol colonies, Hawkins was among the first to speak out against it. Believing the tax to be a injustice done by a totalitarian government Hawkins was successful in convincing other politicians and colonies to speak out against it. Eventually refusing to pay any tariffs and tax, he was promptly ordered to be arrested by the Sol Alliance government.

When the Alliance 12th fleet's Military Police attempted to forcefully arrest Governor Hawkins on Jamestown, they ran into conflict with the local militia. After a fire-fight which saw numerous wounded and 2 killed, the local militia was successful in forcing back Sol Alliance invaders. Without consulting Sol Government, the 12th fleet quickly declared Jamestown to be in secession and invaded once again. A detachment of marines massacred the local militia around the the capital building, capturing Hawkins. Hawkins was later tried and executed not by a judge, but by the Admiral of the 12th fleet herself. Clearly insubordinating the Sol Alliance Government. This promptly led to the formation of the Coalition of Colonies and the Interstellar war.

Today Richard Hawkins is seen as a martyr for many humans, with much respect within the Outer and Frontier colonies.
