holbs was a member of the Icon-United Kingdom.png United Kingdom community. Originally known as Tom Morgan, he had his name changed to ecksohh on 29/3/2011 when Plato granted a request to change it. On 25/6/2017 it was discovered that the name was changed again to the current one.

Most of his eRepublik life has been spent serving in the British Armed Forces ranging from being a Private in the Royal Navy up to be the Minister of Defence, leading the entire British military on multiple occasions. He also served as a soldier in the UKSF and is a recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest honour given by the military. He was also a party member of the Free Democratic Party.

Beginning

holbs started off in eRepublik in his native homeland, the United Kingdom. His first month was spent as an average 2-Clicker, reading the news and trying to understand what was going on. The PEACE invasion of Northern America was ongoing and to ensure he was able to fight as often as possible he moved first to Indonesia to fight and then onto Hungary. He stayed there for a few weeks before moving back to the United Kingdom when everything had died down.
When he returned he saw a recruitment advert for the Royal Navy and joined up.

Royal Navy

holbs was placed on the HMS Cutlass and became good friends with his Captain, Lloydy Kelly. Within a month he was given command of his own tin can, promoted to Captain of the HMS thehorseltd. After an impressive time as Captain, he was promoted into Royal Navy command as Commodore of the Southern & Caribbean fleet.
After Admiral fezoj retired to focus on his university work, holbs formed a strong friendship with Admiral R.R. Napier, Napier showed him the ropes of the Admiralty and let him take higher commands in Naval strikes and decision making. This allowed holbs to hone his leadership skills, something that would be invaluable in the future.

Royal Marines

Soon the Royal Navy was a huge fighting force, and Naval command felt it was beginning to stagnate as potential damage was being lost on lower quality weapons, this prompted the formation of the Royal Marines. Admiral R.R. Napier and Minister of Defence Polio chose holbs to lead these Marines who were to be high damage, quick reaction force of the Navy.

Chief of the Defence Staff

This soldier has been Mentioned in Despatches by the UK Military.

After the invasion of the United Kingdom by EDEN forces was defeated by the United Kingdom and her Phoenix allies, holbs was promoted to Chief of the Defence Staff. This was a role to divide the work of the previous Minister of Defence between two people - the MoD and CDS. This set up stayed like this until GLaDOS was elected Prime Minister two months later, naming holbs as his Minister of Defence, effectively merging the two roles together.
As Chief of the Defence Staff, holbs reformed the military to make it ready for eRepublik Rising, creating the Army and the SAS.
holbs resigned from his post on the 21st of May, 2010, he held a position in the Defence Staff for a month afterwards to help with the transition over to the new CDS, he cited his impending inactivity for his resignation.

House of Lords

holbs was elected to the House of Lords by his peers on April the 6th, 2010. Known as the Duke of Greenwich. Elected for his military know how he gave advice to the House of Commons on military matters such as MPP signing, declarations of war and attacking countries.
holbs also took part in many debates about acts in Parliament including the restart of the #freeguns program and the Subjects of the United Kingdom act of which he was a great supporter.
holbs resigned his position in the House of Lords after almost two months as a Lord citing impending inactivity.

Legacy

Then Minister of Defence, Artela and military command decided to bring back the Royal Navy, along with the Royal Air Force whilst adding the Special Air Service, Special Boat Service and Royal Parachute Regiment to the United Kingdom Special Forces in military reform.
One of the two original ships in this new Naval force has been named after his original alias, Tom Morgan. The other has been named after John F Baker (using his original name) who had been Admiral of the previous Navy, and served in the House of Lords with holbs.
