Paul Davis

Officer based at the Pentagon, Major Paul Davis serves as envoy and consultant to the S.G.C. on matters dealing with the Stargate and internal security.

Quick to judge and always an opinion at the tip of his tongue, Davis has served his country well through both the Pentagon and the S.G.C. He has frequently been subject to the mishaps of the organization, having once been duplicated by mimetic aliens seeking to subvert the government. Often Davis stands alongside General George Hammond as a liaison back to the Pentagon, monitoring situations and preparing for action. He once traveled to Russia to institute peace talks in order to obtain their dial-home device, hoping the equipment would save Teal'c's life. Dedicated to the interests of the United States, Davis was tremendously opposed to giving over plans for the naquadah reactor.

Davis finally joined the team on a mission when a Goa'uld mothership appeared in Earth's orbit. He has also been known to safeguard the S.G.C. against nosy reporters who would like to expose secret military projects.

In any capacity, Paul Davis has proven himself as an invaluable member of the United States government and an adopted member of the S.G.C., improving the chances of success in any mission with which he is involved.
