Background:
Janie grew up on Velar, a planet who's people age to the apperance of children but have life spans of nearly 600 years. They are a fairly peaceful race only really using their space ship technology for trading and exploring.
Janie entered the Velarian Military Institute at the age of 75, the minimum age requirement, and became a pilot. She served there until they came under attack by a neighboring planet. She piloted a small shuttle to the nearest friendly outpost which happened to be Starfleet and put in a plea for help. It was answered and Velar became a member of the Federation. After the war ended Velar sent it's officers to Starfleet Academy as a sign of good faith and merged forces so to speak, keeping only enough ships and crews behind for defense and trading purposes.
Janie had been one of the oldest officers left after the war and her people felt she would become a Starfleet officer.
