Casely began active duty on the [[USS Nimitz]] on 2406.10.29 at the rank of Ensign Junior Grade. Assigned as an Assistant [[Tactical Officer]] under [[Rank|Ensign]] Senior Grade Onyx Kateb, was first alerted to the 'cold war' between the two factions of Starfleet by [[Rank|Captain]] [[Devan Sash]]. Despite some initial hesitation, Casely saw the sense of what the [[52nd Fleet]] was doing and joined the battle against [[Admiral Doenitz|Doenitz]].

Casely moved quickly up the ranks as Onyx Kateb and Edward Gideon, the [[Tactical Officer|Security Chief]], were killed during the following mission to free [[Rank|Captain]] [[Caladryll Sevant]] on 2406.11.25 of the [[USS Boudicca]] from [[Doenitz]]. Now, fully the Tactical and Security Chief of the USS Nimitz, and promoted twice during the mission finally to the rank of [[Rank|Lieutenant (JG)]], Casely began taking [[Command Training]] from Captain Sash.

Casely's last mission aboard the USS Nimitz involved a Federation member planet that had become unstable. Along with a team of other crewmates, Casely installed stablizers on the planet, thus venting the undercrust pressure successfully. This was the first time Casely led an [[Away Mission]]. While there, he spoke to the leadership of the world about Doenitz, securing the planet as a mission resource supplier.
