Ulysses Stephen "U.S." Trevor was the father of Steve Trevor.

Trevor joined the Air Force shortly before World War II. In 1940, as a young lieutenant, he was tasked with purchasing planes from citizens to expand the air fleet as the threat of war mounted. He got a plane - and its pilot, Diana Rockwell. They married on November 8, 1940. Their only child, Steve, was born weeks after the attack on Pearl Harbor. The child was raised by U.S.' sister Edna as both his parents served in the war, in the Air Force and the Women's Auxiliary Ferrying Squadron. They continued to serve after the war. In December 1948, Diana went missing and was presumed dead. It broke U.S., but he was determined to be a good father. He was immensely proud when Steve graduated from the academy and joined the Air Force too.

In later life, his health failed so he moved in with his sister in Enid, Oklahoma. Steve was able to reconnect with him shortly before his death.[1]
