Ethan was sitting at the OPS station going over docking request, for the next couple of days. He turned his head to his left, and saw Commander Wallace. "Is that the Docking schedule for the next day, Cadet ?" Commander Wallace asked.
"Yes sir only the USS Knight is scheduled for docking on the 10th sir." The cadet said in a sure voice.
"Good that'll make Commander Nevar happy. Cadet I need to speak with you in my office, right now." Richard said walking up to the door to his office. Ethan was wondering as to why the Commander wanted to speak with him, for he didn't think he was in any trouble. The two entered and Ethan took a seat in front of Commander Wallace's desk. And the commander took his seat. Ethan saw on Richard's computer screen his own records.
"According to your orders you're here on a field tour to see, and experince actual Star Fleet operations. That was why I'm assigning you to your first Away Mission." Ethan was shocked and tried to see if herd right.
"Your... going to assign me to an Away Mission?"
"Yes your leaving at 0100hrs tommrow. You'll observe Commanders Nevar and Loran helping these colonists get settled. It's perfect duty for you. Thats all your dismissed." Commander Wallace shut his computer off and picked up a PADD and read it as Ethan left the office.
Lieutenant Call walked over to Cadet Razek and smiled, and said. "Don't, worry Colony duty is fairly easy. Nothing to it, you'll see." Ethan scratched his Bajoran nose ridges and was a little shocked at his assignment. Ethan felt good about himself for good reason, for he was given a field tour and an outstanding first away mission.
