Air Force Academy graduate admitted directly into Stargate Command training simulations alongside cadets Elliot, Hailey and Satterfield. Grogan had an almost pathologic tendency to get in the way of enemy fire, continually being shot and writing himself out of simulations early on. Despite this obvious problem, he and the rest of his team succeeded at their goal of retaking Stargate Command, learning soon after that the entire event was a hoax. Grogan was on stand-by, awaiting a slot to open at the S.G.C., eventually earning himself the position of Lieutenant to SG-9 (commanded by Major Benton) within several weeks. The team traveled to the planet Latona to reopen negotiations with Marul and the rest of the inhabitants. He and the team spent substantial time on the world prior to the arrival of the Goa'uld Svarog and a batallion of Jaffa troops. The rest of SG-9 was eliminated while Grogan managed to conceal himself under foliage, falling unconscious. The next morning Grogan was awakened by SG-1, instructed to make use of his knowledge of the region to aid Colonel Jack O'Neill in reaching Marul. He led the Colonel into the capital building via a "back door" through the city, and later successfully played on Marul's ego to encourage the leader to listen to reason. Grogan also vouched for O'Neill when Marul believed that Jack might be another liar from the Tau'ri. Shortly afterward, Grogan and O'Neill were captured by Svarog's Jaffa and used as bait in front of SG-1 and the renegades for lowering the shield to the Sentinel. Grogan was badly beaten, but survived. PLAYED BY - David Kopp FIRST APPEARED - Proving Ground
