Fictionally, Dave entered the Imperial Navy as a Tie Fighter pilot shortly before Palpatine's rise to power (ca. 25 BBY). His service in the Imperial Navy was of long tenure, and saw him move from starfighters to capital ships.

In service to the Rebel Alliance, he was given command of smaller vessels, until the dire need of well-captained ships for the Battle of Endor pushed him into command of a Nebulon B. Frigate (4 ABY).

His service within the Rebel Squadrons has continued throughout the rest of his active life. He was placed in command of Crusader Fleet, making his flagship the CRS ''McGrath'' (ca. 6-10 ABY).

Fictionally, Dave entered the Imperial Navy as a Tie Fighter pilot shortly before Palpatine's rise to power (ca. 25 BBY). His service in the Imperial Navy was of long tenure, and saw him move from starfighters to capital ships. He commanded the VSD-II Peril under Grand Admiral Thrawn, operating in the Unknown Regions for several years, until being given a mission so chilling that he renounced Imperial service forever and defected, taking his ship and crew with him (ca. 2 ABY). In service to the Rebel Alliance, he was given command of smaller vessels, until the dire need of well-captained ships for the Battle of Endor pushed him into command of a Nebulon B. Frigate (4 ABY). After the Battle of Endor he was given a commission with the newly formed Rebel Squadrons Battlegroup, which was designed by Admiral Ackbar to operate independently in the region of the Minos Cluster and Cadrel Expanse. His service within the Rebel Squadrons has continued throughout the rest of his active life. He was placed in command of Crusader Fleet, making his flagship the CRS McGrath (ca. 6-10 ABY).
