Master Chief Petty Officer Charles Pressly was a navigator in the Systems Alliance Navy, and the navigator for the SSV Normandy SR-1. Passing through Arcturus Flight Academy as one of the best navigators in his class, Pressly went onto his first posting on a Melbourne-class heavy frigate, SSV Tsushima. By 2176 CE, he was the navigator on another Melbourne-class ship, the SSV Agincourt. There, he was part of the relief force dispatched to rout the slaver fleet over Elysium during their attempt to sack the planet. A few years later, and he is posted as the navigator on the SSV Normandy SR-1, handpicked by Anderson. It is here that he served with distinction, eventually overcoming his distrust of aliens to work with the crew effectively. Unfortunately, he met his end over Alchera, where the Normandy was destroyed, taking Pressly with it.
