[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] Rapid? It was the fourth season before he got his promotion. Fandom usually accepts that doctors start out with at least a Lt. (jg) for department command and chain of command reasons. Anyone know how medical ranks work in the Navy or Air Force? Nurses tended to have a rank of Ensign (Ogawa, Voyager's first nurse, etc.), whereas the technicians or orderlies were always crewmen. As for the "full commander" rank, they were pretty rare in the TNG era. The few full commanders we've seen are Riker, Shelby (field promotion), Ferris (field commission), Crusher, Dr. Quaice (really old guy), McCoy, Spock, Quinteros... In the XO position anyway, Lt. Commanders were far more common: Sisko on the Saratoga, Chakotay, Cavit, Riker on the Hood, the guy on the Odyssey... IMO, the full commander's relative rarity is ammunition for the notion that lesser, smaller ships are mostly captianed by them. Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
