Job John

Job John (ジョブ・ジョン, Jobu Jon) was an Earth Federation Forces crew member who served aboard the SCV-70 White Base during the One Year War. As part of the bridge crew, Job contributed to the ship’s operations throughout its legendary campaign from Side 7 to the war’s conclusion.

Service Aboard White Base

Job John served under Captain Bright Noa as one of the bridge crew members, working alongside Mirai Yashima, Marker Clan, Oscar Dublin, and other personnel who maintained the White Base’s operations.

Bridge Operations

As a bridge crew member, Job’s responsibilities included monitoring ship systems and sensors, managing operational readouts, coordinating with other sections during operations, and maintaining watch during transit and combat. His work was essential to the ship’s continuous operation.

Crew Evolution

Job was part of the White Base crew that evolved from the chaos following the Attack on Side 7. Like many crew members, he adapted to the unusual circumstances of the White Base’s composition, working alongside both military personnel and civilian refugees. He maintained professional operations despite the unconventional crew makeup and contributed to the ship’s survival through reliable service.

Role in White Base Operations

Daily Operations

Job maintained regular bridge duties, standing watch rotations and monitoring systems during various operational conditions. He supported tactical operations during combat and coordinated with engineering and other sections to ensure smooth operations.

Combat Support

During the White Base’s numerous engagements, Job provided essential bridge support by maintaining situational awareness and managing system readouts during combat manoeuvres. He supported command decision-making with operational information and coordinated emergency responses when needed.

Legacy

Job John represented the many crew members who performed essential duties aboard the White Base during the One Year War without being protagonists. The ship’s legendary status was built not just on the actions of pilots like Amuro Ray or commanders like Bright Noa, but on the collective professionalism of crew members like Job who maintained operations day-to-day.

The White Base functioned because every crew position was filled with competent personnel who maintained reliable operations. Professional standards were maintained despite unusual circumstances, and team cohesion developed across military and civilian backgrounds. Job exemplified the reliable crew members who made the White Base’s achievements possible through professional execution of their duties.

Behind the Scenes

Job John was created for Mobile Suit Gundam as one of the supporting crew members aboard the White Base. Including characters like Job added depth to the ship’s operations, showing that the legendary vessel functioned through the combined efforts of an entire crew rather than just the main characters.

The presence of supporting crew members demonstrated the reality of naval operations – that warships require full complements of trained personnel performing essential duties to function effectively in combat.
