Yeah. That's part of their background. It stops being important once they get that first level of fighter. Much like how a soldier can be a background for a ranger, barbarian or paladin. Or even a sorcerer. It has no bearing on what the fighter does as a class.Not every fighter is, but certainly quite a number of them are as their background before adventuring begins. Its part of the class fantasy, just being an average guy who learns to use weapons and pushes themselves down that path.
