"Trust me on this one, Captain. If anyone knows how to survive political changes, it's me."

Mr. Welles to Captain Matthew Gideon


Mr. Welles was an Earth Alliance propagandist, and at one time was the co-director of the Ministry of Peace.

History

In 2259 Welles was an influential figure in the new Clark administration and alongside Frederick Lantze was actively involved in the formation of the Ministry of Peace and it's Nightwatch Division.[1]

In 2267 Mr. Welles, having survived the downfall of the Clark Regime as well as the disbandment of the Ministry of Peace and the Nightwatch organization, was still working for EarthGov on behalf of the Political Affairs Office. He was assigned to oversee changes to the Excalibur Expedition's public image after concerns were raised as to how mission was being perceived by Earth's general populous. The changes were purely cosmetic and limited mostly to adjusting the ship's internal colour scheme and designing a unique variant of the Earthforce uniform. [2]
