Murphy sat down in front of the Captain and tried to hide his anger. But it was clear how he felt.
"Sir, Commander Kelly must be punished, he killed Nugent, Harper, and Jones. And not to mention a ship, that could of been saved."
Wallace leaned forward, and took a depth breath trying not to show, his feelings either.
"Listen, he's been arrested. And as soon as the Midway is through with repairs, we will have a trail. What else do you want Son?"Wallace said
"Want us to line him up against the wall and shoot him down?"
That would be fine with me. Murphy said to himself.
"I do have some good news."Wallace said handing a PADD over, to the young engineer.
Woodrow, was read the PADD, and gave a little smile. Then reread it to himself.
For actions in the field. Petty Officer Murphy, is promoted to Chief Petty Officer.
Murphy gave a smile, and then stood up. And walked towards the door. For he hadn't eaten breakfast yet. Murphy found his way to the El Taco restraunt, and ordered a Breakfast Burrito, and a coffee. He had yet to try this kind of food, but was willing to try. He took his food and sat at a table, and began to eat the Burrito, it was rather tasty. Eggs, bacon, and potatoes, and something that he was unfamiliar with that was tomatoes paste with onions, and peppers, sort of spicy, but it was good.
As Woodrow was eating Lt. Tyco sat down and gave a friendly smile. "Hey Chief. I was wondering if you'd stop by the hanger bay and help me on some of the Banshee fighters, their power converter's are about used up."
"Damn, Sorry, the Sutherland needs a complete over haul on their phase inducers. That'll take all damn day, and then some."Chief Murphy said with a bit of frustration.
"Who's helping you?"Kim asked
"Some pup from the Sutherland a Lieutenant Fields. He's an idiot." Murphy said taking a bit of his food.
Kim smiled, and gave a chuckle.
"Well your not so much older then him."
"Your right, except my father had me learn how to realign the dilthuim matrix, on a Nebula class ship, before I was 9." The Chief said with much pride in his voice.
"Wow, some father. Must of been a fun childhood."
Murphy thought for a minute, and felt good on thinking back to his childhood. His father was never one to play catch, but they did do allot of things together, and as he thought about it he gave a smile.
"Hey Chief, why didn't you enroll in the academy?"
"Cause I failed their entrance exam.Well excuse me must get to that job."
