Psychological Evaluation

After the death of his father Daniel took it upon himself to be the man of the house and was under great stress to perform. He saw what his father did as an act of bravery for his crew and felt as if he had to do the same. After numerous counselling sessions Daniel decided that he had a very respectable father and decided that he had no obligation to live to his fathers standards. As a result of this Daniel has become a stronger psycholocicaly developed person and would make a fine officer some day. He always put others first and listens to thier problems offering excellent advice this will hold him in good stead for his first command. A note for the record is that I Lt.Cmdr Terri Farquhar would also like Daniel to become a counselor. -Lt.Cmdr Terri Farquhar
