[QUOTE]Originally posted by MarianLH: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Dat: [qb]It's better that Cartwright wasn't the CiC in ST4 because it's apparent he's under Adm. Smillie in ST6, who was the CiC. [/qb][/QUOTE]Why? I always got the impression that the position of Starfleet Commander was a temporary one, that senior admirals were rotated through it. With nine years between [i]IV[/i] and [i]VI[/i], there's plenty of room for both of them to hold the post. And Cartwright was certainly acting like the guy in charge, briefing the president and all. Incidentally, at the beginning of TMP Kirk was wearing a rear admiral's rank insignia, so whatever "chief of Starfleet operations" is, it's pretty low on the totem pole. In Roddenberry's novelization, he's acting mostly as a kind of executive officer for Nogura. Marian [/QB][/QUOTE]
