[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] [QUOTE]The Republic mentioned in "Valiant" (DS9) is the same ship as from "Court Martial" (TOS) and TUC, the Constitution-class NCC-1371.[/QUOTE] Let's think about this for a second. I realize that a reference by Ron Moore in the Encyclopedia states that he [i]thought[/i] the Republic training ship was the original Connie. Playing devil's advocate, let's say he's correct. Reality check: You're a midshipman, cadet, or whatever in today's U.S. Navy. Your commandant, however, states that your naval training will commence aboard a ship which is over one hundred years old (i.e the late nineteenth century, or the beginning of the twentieth). Pray tell, what exactly would be the point of this training? And where exactly would a ship this old be found to train on in the first place? IIRC, all Jake said about the Republic was that it hadn't left Earth orbit for fifty years. Wouldn't it more likely be an Excelsior? [/QB][/QUOTE]
