Biography

Background information

Born in St Paul, Minnesota in the United States of America on March 11 1964, nothing is known of Dixon's early history until he joined the Minneapolis police department after leaving school. After this, he enrolled in the North Central University where he went on to major in Criminology. After graduating from this university, and at the age of twenty-five, he went on to join the United States Air Force where he rose through the ranks to become a Security Forces Officer, becoming an anti-terror expert whilst in this role. (SG1: "The DVD Collection 50")

Dixon is married to a woman named Lainie and has a daughter named Vera, three un-named sons and is currently expecting another child.

1997

Whilst serving as a Major in the United States Air Force, Dixon was assigned temporary command of SG-2 whilst Ferretti was in the infirmary following the Tau'ri's first visit to Chulak. (SG1: "Sacrifice Moon")

1998

He later became involved with the Stargate Program again while serving with its Pentagon Standby Strike Team under Colonel Frank Cromwell. (SG1: "A Matter of Time")

2000

Some time later, Dixon, now the head of the strike team, was assigned, along with his men, to "plug the holes" made by the deaths of SG Team personnel in a turbulent time in the program's history. Dixon was sent to SG-1, officially as an observer, and helped secure a mining treaty on a planet named Adjo, with him and other SG-1 members briefly in danger of dying of a Goa'uld version of the bubonic plague. (SG1: "Do No Harm")

2004

Afterwards, Dixon was offered a permanent place at the SGC, which he eventually accepted, and became the commanding officer of SG-13. On a mission to P3X-666, his team found ruins of an Ancient city. While exploring the ruins, they ran into a Goa'uld Reconnaissance probe that relayed their position before they could destroy it. Later the planet was attacked by Jaffa and Senior Airman Simon Wells was shot in the back by a Staff weapon. He sent Dr. Cameron Balinsky back to Stargate Command to get reinforcements. When SG-1 arrived, he helped them fight off the Jaffa so Dr. Janet Fraiser could stabilize Wells. (SG1: "Heroes, Part 1", "Heroes, Part 2")

Trivia

  • The name of his daughter would appear to be an homage to another character that Adam Baldwin has played, on the short lived science fiction show Firefly. His character named his favorite gun Vera.
