[QUOTE]Originally posted by Kazeite: [QB] Snay, nice post :) And this is a very sensible theory about Picards junior officers. It sounds plausible to me - after all, some of the admirals seem to be younger that Picard (his 'dear friend' Alynna, for example ;) ) But I must disagree about Picard being "the perfect contender for command of a Galaxy-Class starship". Consider this: would you give command of the Enterprise CVN-65 to the commander of, say... one of the US frigates? (Trivia: Poland recently received two older frigates from the US Navy, although personally I have no idea what for :rolleyes: ) As one of my friends wrote in his fanfic, "One must learn to know how te read between werses. Any captain can be described as 'excellent commander' in his files, but if he's really good, it will be recognized and awarded." What I'm trying to say is, the fact that Picard was in command of Stargazer for twenty years doesn't say good about his command abilities. He may be good, but he wasn't good enough to receive new, better ship. He seemed to be normal, average competent starship captain. Offhand, I can think about at least two other captains that would be better candidates for the position of the captain of the Enterprise: Thomas Halloway and Edward Jellico. the fact that one was doing exploration missions in the absolete cruiser doesn't mean he is the best choice for doing the same thing in the three times bigger luxury starship :) [/QB][/QUOTE]
