I too have made it my background, and also have some fealings about the recasting. But a new movie is better than no Trek at all.

Granted but now everything else is shrinking.
I wish I had the money to fix up my Truck

I got it last night and the Navy Exchange. Watched it twice already. Love it. I am going through all of the extras as time permits. Since I do not have a job per se Time has been permitting alot. Will write up more as I can pull myself away from the DVD player.

I am currently reading Star Trek Vanguard Harbinger by David Mack, it is quite good. I am looking forward to more in the series.

Would not want to have the responsibility that goes along with it.

Yes Jim, I am a Petty Officer First Class Information Systems Technician, well at least for another month. MY title while on watch though is CWO (Communication Watch Officer). to confuse people more. I was approtched by the Army to be a communications, computers, and an inteligence CWO, but after they reviewed my Medical records, I was not followed up on. It would be an honor to salute you, bu tyou would have to fly out to San Diego between the 27th of September and the 7th of October to catch me b4 I start my separation leave.

The old version is much better than the new. The rythem does not match the vocal in the new.

In the real fleet.... a CWO is a sailor who through technical knowledge is advanced to a rank that is actually a bridge between the enlisted ranks and the Officer ranks, They typically enjoy the same benefits as a Master Chief Petty Officer, IE no required to stand duty, even though most do, and treated as an officer, called sir, and Saluted. That is just a brief take from a sailor.

OH' yeah, they might not be photon, but we have torpedos. Also I know that bearing, range, and mark are not nautical exclusive, but they are used.

I agree that the Q would win, but it would be fun to watch the confusion on the Borg's face if they were even allowed to try to assimilate.

They use the term "Away party" or "Away Team", another term we use for "boarding parties" or the new Navy's term VBSS (Visit Board Search and Seizure). The sad fact is the way the current Navy ios going there will be a great amount of Nautical heritage and phraseology lost.

I am so mad that I missed it. I am so tired of missing 6 months + of TV every yer or so. The next week cannot go fast enough.

Some background. I am getting out of the Navy soon, and I never really had anyproblems with transferring before but I am getting Deserters Syndrome hard right now. I have never gotten it so bad, but then I have never made as many good frinds as I have here either. Wouldn't you know it. I fit in some one for once in my life and then I am having to leave. It just isn't fair. Has anyone coped with this, and what advise can the give. Please PM me if you have help but do not want to broadcast it on the open forum.
Thanks,

I agree.My very first memory of watching Star Trek is of being enthralled with Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan when I was very young.Then I remember watching trouble with tribble with my uncle for hours on end on beta.

The Natural Leader
If you want to move up the ranks, you probably have what it takes to make that climb! You're creative, assertive, and empathetic. You easily draw groups together and enjoy heading them up. Most promissing, you enjoy bringing out the best in others. You have high expectations of them - possibly higher than they have of themselves - and you're prepared to do what it takes to help them realize that potential. Just be mindful not to let more superficially forceful characters push you out of the way.
