Albert, “Al”, Calavicci was born June 15, 1934. He joined the United States Navy, and became a pilot. In the arm, Al met the love of his life, Beth. The two got married but unfortunately, he was captured by the Vietnamese in 1969. Al was released in 1973 and discovered that he was declared MIA and Beth had re-married. Over the years, he re-married, but all four marriages failed.

Al rose through the naval ranks and eventually became a Rear Admiral. But, due to the loss of Beth, Al started to abuse alcohol. While working on the Starbright Project, he first met Dr. Sam Beckett. The two became friends and Sam started to help him turning his life around.

Later, Al and Sam worked together in the Project Quantum Leap , a time travel experiment. After Sam leaped in time, Al could communicate with him by appearing in the form of a hologram that only Sam could see and hear.

Sam was able to changes history by convincing Beth that Al was still alive and would return home. This caused them to stay married for decades and have four daughters. Al died of natural causes in 2021.
