:'''The''' only mission Alexander participated in during his short stay on the Starbase was a drill perpetrated by Starfleet Intelligence. It wasn't until the completion of the mission that the entire thing was revealed as an exercise. Alexander was furious that Starfleet Intelligence had green lit such a scheme which had led him to believe his wife and son were in grave danger. Following the conclusion of the exercise, Alexander stormed into the command deck of the station and promptly resigned his commission | :'''The''' only mission Alexander participated in during his short stay on the Starbase was a drill perpetrated by Starfleet Intelligence.

:'''Soon''' after the mission to Deep Space 17, the majority of the senior staff were called away on an urgent matter leaving Alexander as the highest ranking member of the senior staff onboard and thus, in command. Not long after the senior staff's departure, the USS Mercury received a distress signal and Alexander ordered the undermanned vessel to investigate as per standard Starfleet protocol. The mission, although successful was a complete mess. But for the skilled actions of the ships new Caitian pilot the USS Mercury would have been lost with all hands. Alexander saw the mission as a learning experience but found himself in no hurry to command a star ship of his own. | :'''Soon''' after the mission to Deep Space 17, the majority of the senior staff were called away on an urgent matter leaving Alexander as the highest ranking member of the senior staff onboard and thus, in command.

:'''Alexander's''' final mission on the USS Mercury involved the ship investigating an ancient library. Owing to the adverse conditions created by the planetary systems star and having been temporarily made the ships acting chief engineer, Alexander found himself modifying the ship and her systems to be able to withstand the phenomenon they might encounter. Towards the end of the mission, Alexander was ordered to lead an away team to rescue a ship that had been caught by a defensive weapon protecting the library. The away mission was nearly a catastrophe with Alexander's arrogance getting in the way of operating procedures. Thankfully for his sake, the surviving crew were rescued although the ship was lost | :'''Alexander's''' final mission on the USS Mercury involved the ship investigating an ancient library.

:'''The''' crew of the USS Drake acquired the services of two civilian vessels and proceeded with their black ops missions. The crew with the help of a band of Orion pirates managed to thwart the plans of Atherton Tomic but, at a great cost. A member of the Drakes crew lost their life in a heroic sacrifice to prevent Tomic's weapon from destroying the refinery. In the mean time, Alexander helped to prevent a dilithium store on the refinery from destroying the entire complex.
