[edit] Biography
Special Agent G. Callen is an orphan who was raised in the state welfare system, possibly in foster homes. His legal name is G Callen; when asked what the letter 'G' stands for, he said that no one ever told him.
[edit] Career
Special Agent Callen's career with NCIS has included assignments in Serbia and Russia. On two separate occasions Callen's life was saved by Leroy Jethro Gibbs, once in Serbia and once in Russia. Currently, Callen is serving as a member of Special Agent Lara Macy's team attached to the Office of Special Projects. At the conclusion of episode 6.22, "Legends (Part 2)" Special Agent Callen was wounded in a drive-by shooting witnessed by Special Agent Sam Hanna. The motive for the shooting has not been disclosed, however the Russian woman next to his apartment is seen to have left immediately after his shooting, smiling. In episode 6.24 entitled "Semper Fidelis" Tobias Fornell inquired after Callen, and Gibbs told him that Callen's condition was still critical. Ironically before being shot Callen had remarked to Agent Hanna that he thought is was time for him to move again, and that he felt as though he was being watched. As a member of OSP Callen's current partner is Sam Hanna. Four months later Callen returned to his duties. The case file related to the attempt on his life remains active and open.
[edit] Relationships with Colleagues
[edit] Leroy Jethro Gibbs
While, on a mission in Serbia Gibbs saved Callen's life. Gibbs also asserted that he saved Callen's life in Russia as well, which Callen denies. Callen has an intimate knowledge of Gibbs' past since—he is aware of Gibbs' boat building hobby, as well as being aware of his three failed marriages. It is interesting that Gibbs in episode 6.22 Legend (Part 1) he told Callen that he had been married four times, a fact Gibbs tends to keep close to the vest. Callen is one of five people who call Gibbs "Jethro." He gives McGee a sniper's magazine to use for conversation with Gibbs on their return flight to D.C., saying it worked for him.
Callen by his own admission considers Gibbs family.
