[QUOTE]Originally posted by Aban Rune: [QB] Timo: I think his exact words were "You don't make captain wearing a gold uniform". I could be wrong or he could have meant that it is much harder and takes much longer and it doesn't happen very often. I guess my biggest question about this is, if anyone can make commander or captain, why bother with the division distinctions? While having Crusher show up as the captain of the Pasteur in AGT was a nice dramatic touch, I simply didn't think it was realistic. Acheiving the rank of captain should mean that you are qualified to command a starship, but in her case it absolutely doesn't. There are officers who soend their entire lives training to command a ship. Crusher has spent her life training to save lives. Now who knows, maybe in that future she dropped out of the Medical corps soon after the series ended and essentially started over in the command division and spent the next 25 years gaining command experience. Maybe she was relatively new to command. I just didn't buy it. I wouldn't want to serve aboard a ship where the person in command didn't have the experience to run the ship. [/QB][/QUOTE]
