COMMANDER
SAMAL E. FRAZIER
Personal History: Samal E. Frazier started is military career on Stardate 237003.10 when he enlisted in the Federation Army at the age of 17. His first year was spent mainly in training. His specialties were Intelligence and small assault team light infantry tactics. He excelled in all of his training and was selected for a small special operation unit assigned to Star Base 157. While there he moved is way up to Sergeant and was put in charge of a forward intelligence collection team on stardate 237209.16. At first his new assignment was kind of slow. If his team was not training, they were deep in Romulan space tracking supply routes. It was not until 2373, with the start of the Dominion war, when is job got a more interesting. A few months before the war started his team sat at an undisclosed location watching the worm whole located at Deep Space 9. His team was cut off from friendly space when DS9 fell to the Dominion. Luckily they got in contact with the Bajoran underground and was able to reestablish contact with Star Fleet. His team supplied all of the intelligence for the retaking of DS9. For the next year he would find himself in a lot more tricky situations in order to ensure Star Fleet had the intelligence needed to beat the Dominion. Following the Attack on Earth by the Breen, Samal returned home briefly for the funeral of his mother, MAJ Sara Frazier. After a short time back on Earth Samal was put back into action. After the shift of the war and the Federation was beating back the Dominion, now Staff Sergeant Samal Frazier’s team was sent into Cardassian space to sent back report on the battles between the Dominion and the Cardassians. At the conclusion of the war in 2375, SSG Samal Frazier and his team were ordered back to SB 157. His team would only get a short break before being sent off to other areas of the galaxy to ensure the Federation was safe. The decision to leave the Federation Army for Star Fleet was not an easy one. Even though he always had an interest in Star Fleet his dedication was always with the Army. On stardate 237708.15, Staff Sergeant Samal Frazier left the Federation Army to Attend Star Fleet Academy. He was 25 and had already lived 10 life times. Nothing is more important to Samal Frazier then his honor and his dedication to the Federation. Star Fleet is the logical next course of action to take. Cadet Samal Ezra Frazier reported to Star Fleet Academy on stardate 237709.06. Samal majored in security and tactical with a minor in intelligence. His experience at the academy was a good one. His ability with people made him very popular with everyone. There were very few people at the academy that did not like Samal. He always served as the mediator between cadet conflicts. Samal would finish in the middle of his class at the academy. After the academy Samal reported to the USS Steadfast to begin what is shore to be a successful career. Samal would not have it any other way. Samal started off as a Tactical Officer and before long was named Chief Tactical Officer. Samal’s priority has always been completing the mission and ensuring the safety of the Steadfast. Samal served with distinction receiving two TOSMA II awards. In late 2382, Samal was very surprised at the news that the USS Steadfast was being mothballed. Samal assumed he would serve majority of his career there but knew that things change and he had to move forward. Samal was pleased when he found out the crew he had served with would remain together in their next assignment. The Steadfast’s First Officer was approved for command of her own ship and would lead the crew. Samal was later honored when the newly promoted Captain T’Pen asked him to serve as her First officer. Samal graciously accepted and promised his dedication to their crew and to their new ship. Coming from a proud military traditional family, Samal never takes his responsibility, his duty, and his honor lightly. Accomplishment of the mission and the safety of the crew remained his top priority. Samal certainly had no worries with the mission that lay ahead working with an excellent crew and for an excellent Captain. Rank Upgrades 238404.29 Commander
