'''Anassasi''': Commander Cody, it is with considerable pleasure that I award you the Merria Medallion. As Captain Lancaster stated, this medallion is seldom awarded within the fleet. Yet those who earn it have shown considerable talent in the field of computer engineering and programming. Your talent for computer manipulation for the purpose of data tracking is unparalleled. It is an honor to award you the Merria Medallion .

'''Anassasi''': [[Wood, Daniel|Lt. Wood]], please step forward. This next award honors your commitment to personal development and growth. Since the moment you arrived on my ship, you have sought to improve yourself both as a Starfleet officer and as a person. This quest began in the academy and continues now through training, experience, and knowledge gained through these experiences. So it is with great pleasure that I present to you with the Barclay Bead.

'''Anassasi''': Lt. Reynolds was greviously injured on [[TE-IV]] when a bomb exploded next to her. This next award speaks of courage and bravery in the line of duty. It is about courage to do your duty despite the risk to yourself. It is the essence of what it means to be a member of this crew and a Starfleet officer. It is with great pleasure that I award you the Purple Star.

'''Anassasi''': [[Cruise, Allen|Lt. Cruise]], please step forward. :: Jessa waits for him to join her on stage before continuing. :: Lt. Cruise, your dedication to this crew is reminiscent of many fine officers who have come before you. The list includes such laudable names as [[Hutton, Christopher|Captain Hutton]], [[Rhys Bejain|Captain Rhys]], and [[Mar, Idril|Captain Mar]]. I have no doubt that one day another name will be added to that list for, like you, each one of those officers continued in their duty despite the odds or injury. May your enthusiasm and dedication persist for many years to come.

'''Anassasi''': Yet, dedication and honor are only a part of a First Officer's job. Commander Riley has spent many long hours assisting our staff. She dedicates time and effort to help guide our officers forward in their careers. In addition to serving this crew, Commander Riley serves as the Assistant Commandant of Training. She welcomes new officers into our fleet and provides training to our future Captains. Her work is nothing short of exemplary. As such, she is one of three who have been chosen to receive this next award. Commander Riley, it is with great pleasure that I award you the Strange Medallion.
