Oscar Dublin

Oscar Dublin (オスカ・ダブリン, Osuka Daburin) was an Earth Federation Forces petty officer who served aboard the SCV-70 White Base during the One Year War.

Service Aboard White Base

Oscar Dublin served under Captain Bright Noa as one of the bridge crew, working alongside Mirai Yashima, Sayla Mass, Marker Clan, and other crew members who operated the White Base’s complex systems.

Technical Operations

Bridge Crew

Oscar was part of the professional military personnel aboard the White Base, distinct from the civilian refugees who later took on military roles.
