| | | Seeley Booth's Backstory Seeley Booth is a former sniper of the United States Army Rangers. He is currently an agent with the FBI. He frequently consults with his professional partner Dr. Brennan, whom he has nicknamed 'Bones', and her team of "squints" (as he calls them), acting as a liaison between the FBI and the Jeffersonian Institute.
While Seeley tries to keep personal and professional life strictly separate, aspects of his personal life leak through. He is a religious man by nature, having been an Altar boy as a child, (he knows a little Latin) and is still a practicing Roman Catholic, seeking to atone for the lives he took as a sniper through his work in the FBI. His father flew fighter planes during the Vietnam War and his mother composed jingles for television adverts. While in the Army Rangers, he was apparently tortured, leaving him with emotional and physical scars (revealed in 1x15 "Two Bodies in the Lab"). Booth has apparently been serving the FBI for the past 12 years as of episode 4x06 "The Crank in the Shaft", meaning that he was either 24 or 25 at the time.
In season 4 he reveals that his father was a barber as well as a drunk (revealed earlier in the season), and abusive. In the episode "Mayhem on the Cross," Booth states that, had it not been for his grandfather, he might have killed himself as an adolescent, though he only reveals this to help Brennan when she told him and Sweets about her own trauma in the foster system. Booth, Brennan, and Sweets all had abusive childhoods and have formed something of a surrogate family, clearly affectionate, but hidden behind banter and mock insults.
In the last episode of season four, "The End In The Beginning", the surgery to remove Booth's brain tumor was a success. However, Booth reacted poorly to the anesthesia which resulted in a coma that lasted four days and apparent amnesia.
In the Season 5 opener, Harbingers in the Fountain, Booth says his full name, "Seeley Joseph Booth" when being interviewed by Sweets to be cleared to return to full duty. | | Bones Character Connections |  | Name: Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan
