He was born toward the beginning of the First Lunar War. As he grew up, he was always fascinated with machines and how they worked and so when it came time to decide what he wanted to do with his life he chose the path of an engineer. He joined the AEO quickly as they had need of mechanics to keep their suits in tip-top shape considering the tension between the Earthnoids and the Spacenoids. He did his best to keep the suits in working order and only once made a mistake which cost a pilot his life when the suit had a critical failure during a battle. That failure has haunted him to this very day. When the Second Lunar War was over and FUSE rose from the ashes of CHROME and the AEO, Newman stayed on as an engineer and continued to do what he loves. His skills in mechanics have improved greatly and so he up to this point remains with only a single blemish on his record.
Over his time as an engineer, he had been required to test the suits to make sure they worked properly so he had some experience moving them about, not to the level that regular pilots did, but enough that he wouldn't be left behind if he was required to pilot one.
Of course it was all circumstantial and he had yet to try one of the new ones. He still remembered the time he had tested the Nimbus, oh, those were the days.
