After reaching eighteen - as soon as he was old enough to legally operate a speeder - he applied for reassignment as a Scout Trooper. He served there for years, and eventually went on to become a Sergeant within his unit, leading the four-man biker unit known as a Lancer. Longing for greater thrills and excitement from his work however, Glayde took the logical step of progressing into the Jump Troopers: soldiers trained as high altitude paratroopers to be deployed behind enemy lines. He spent a distinguished tour with the Jump Troopers, until his unit was completely devastated on a mission: according to official records none survived, but Glayde was one of two who did live through the battle. Officially declared dead, he was offered a classified new assignment, as a Storm Commando. | After reaching eighteen - as soon as he was old enough to legally operate a speeder - he applied for reassignment as a Scout Trooper.
