Dogglittle was and still is a recognized name in the Veredalian Air Force, tracing their routes back in World War II, by the name James H, Dogglittle.
Tyler was born in the Keystone District of Veredalia on the 2nd of September, 2001.
Tyler is the oldest of 3 siblings that he kept his eyes on throughout his life, same with his patents who have supported him through his early journey.
He grew up in the District for all of his childhood up until his graduation in the local high school within the area. His passion for aircraft began at a young age, his goals were to grace the skies, and his motivation was James H, Dogglittle. Before he enlisted into the VAF (Veredalian Air Force), he was diagnosed with high functioning autism, Asperges. This did not stop him from joining, but it also helped him with spreading awareness of doing more than what others expect him to do.
While being in the enlisted ranks, he talked to current pilots to plan on Officer School and Piloting.
After studying school while serving the forces, he currently has a degree in Meteorology, and went into Officer School, and not long after, Pilot School. It didn't take long for leadership to notice Dogglittle's feats while in training, wiping the floor of his peers and teaching them techniques to counter. One instance was the day he got his callsign, in a simulated attack run as Red Air, he chased down several Blue Air trainees, resulting in more than half of Blue to be 'shot down'.
One pilot quoted saying: "It was like having a pack of Wild Dogs after you. No matter how fast or hard you can turn, that kid is always on your tail, and I'm glad he's on our side."
The name stuck, and his new Callsign was now "Wild Dog," his graduation led to him being put into the 437th TFS, apart of the 35th FW.
One of Veredalia's most decorated units in the military, and the youngest out of the current pilots residing in the unit. Around 2028, a new program, the Foreign Pilot Program (FPP), was given to Dogglittle as his first challenge.
At this time, the former Flight Commander retired a few weeks after being promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and now in charge of the squadron and new pilots from other allied nations. One of his first pilots he personally selected was an avian from Grenva, callsign 'Phoenix', a hot headed Raven with an aggressive attitude, which later became became one of the main pilots of the 437th.
Many pilots came and went back to their respective nations to help their units training, but with Dogglittle's contributions and motivation, few pilots stayed and joined his unit, currently now one of the most lethal squadrons in Veredalia's military. And around December 2029, they were sent out to help their allies.
