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.

===Serving Officers Reports===
====Cadet Cruise====
* None at this time.
* Daniel's cadet cruise was served aboard the [[ma:Nebula class|Nebula class]] vessel ''USS Invincible'', under the command of Captain Kelly Ching. During his time aboard the vessel, Daniel carried out different activities, although these were mainly in his trained post as a Security Officer. He saw his time on the vessel as a learning experience and a chance to see how the real world operates.


==Rank History==
:'''Stardate 238302.08''': ''Daniel served with a remarkable enthusiasm for his job, something I admire in a person. Many officers spoke to me about to Cadet Woods' remarkable ability to perform what was asked of him. During his time aboard the Invincible, Daniel took part in battle drills, intruder alert simulations, Brig and Armory operations and, notably, the day to day Security of the ship. It has been a pleasure having him serve his cruise aboard the ''Invincible'' and I wish him well for the future.'' - Lt. Vicki Brown


===[[Image:Cadet1.jpg]] Cadet 1st year===
====Command School - Year One====
Daniel intially found it difficult to adapt to life in Starfleet and was rapidly falling behind in his classes. After a meeting with the Commandant he was ordered to seek council, to see whether this would continue or not. Lt.Cmdr Terri Farquhar requested Daniel to be placed inder her care, to this day it is not clear why. Daniel stayed at a steady pace but was still behind the rest of his classmates. Daniel barely passed his first year.
* After studying his options and weighing them against his ambitions and goals, Daniel decided to remain at the Academy and continue his studies at Command School. He found year one the most boring as it was mainly lectures and seminars, although during that time he learned a lot about how command should work. His background of helping others and his minor in Communications/Operations were greatly beneficial in this part of the course.


===[[Image:Cadet.jpg]] Cadet 2nd year===  
====Command School - Year Two====
Daniel continued to see Lt.Cmdr Farquhar and between them managed to solve his problems.  Daniel worked extra hard to catch up with his class mates and sacrificed many pleasures to do so. After many months of physical training aswell as mental training Daniel sat his exams and passed with good grades. This not only boosted his confidence but what Daniel was about to achieve would boost the instucters and the Commandants confidence in Daniel.
* Year Two saw Daniel flourish as a budding command potential. Simulation after simulation saw Daniel lead the crew and help the crew in times of crisis. Daniel's time on the Invincible had held him in good stead and certainly kept him flowing in enthusiasm till the end of the course.


===[[Image:Cadet3.jpg]] Cadet 3rd year===
:'''Stardate 238309.05''': ''I have seen many young Ensign's pass through my doors over the years, a lot of them still arrogant and cocky. However there's always the exceptional minority that are born to lead others through bad times and others, I truly believe great things could become of this young man, if he sticks at it and produces only the best, much in the same way he has given me these past two years. I hope one day to here of this young mans success and place with the rest. Such as Kirk, Picard and Janeway. This young man has an extraordinary ability to lead and his manner and work ethic is certainly one to be proud of and admired. I wish him every luck for the future and hope he makes his Commanding Officers proud like he has made me.'' - Prof Enrique Shriver
Daniel decided it was time to end his sessions with Lt.Cmdr Farquhar having sought refugee with his class mates discussing issues.  His classmates now confided in Daniel more than ever, and unbeknown to them, both the Commandant and Lt.Cmdr Farquhar noticed his extreme ability to deal with people and situations. Daniel was approached speratly on numerous occasions asking him to swap course from Security to Counseling, all times he refused. Daniel's confidence had grown so much that he was now questioning instructers and there theory's something he knew they didn't like and sometimes he knew it was futile but he got results with some of his reasoning.


===[[image:Cadet4.jpg]] Cadet 4th year===  
====Languages====
Daniels final year was probably his best after his continued success in class and top marks. He prepared himself mentally for the Kobayashi Maru and Psyhc Test. Daniel aslo proved highly suited to the role of a Security Officer having gained top marks in his Command test. His teacher Lt.Cmdr Sidney Riley was later to become his first Officer. After succesfully completing all three tests Daniel proudly accpeted his graduation and subsequent promotion to Ensign. In attendance of his graduation was Lt.Cmdr Farquhar, who supported Daniel through his Academy Days.

Cadet Cruise

  • Daniel's cadet cruise was served aboard the Nebula class vessel USS Invincible, under the command of Captain Kelly Ching. During his time aboard the vessel, Daniel carried out different activities, although these were mainly in his trained post as a Security Officer. He saw his time on the vessel as a learning experience and a chance to see how the real world operates.
Stardate 238302.08: Daniel served with a remarkable enthusiasm for his job, something I admire in a person. Many officers spoke to me about to Cadet Woods' remarkable ability to perform what was asked of him. During his time aboard the Invincible, Daniel took part in battle drills, intruder alert simulations, Brig and Armory operations and, notably, the day to day Security of the ship. It has been a pleasure having him serve his cruise aboard the Invincible and I wish him well for the future. - Lt. Vicki Brown

Command School - Year One

  • After studying his options and weighing them against his ambitions and goals, Daniel decided to remain at the Academy and continue his studies at Command School. He found year one the most boring as it was mainly lectures and seminars, although during that time he learned a lot about how command should work. His background of helping others and his minor in Communications/Operations were greatly beneficial in this part of the course.

Command School - Year Two

  • Year Two saw Daniel flourish as a budding command potential. Simulation after simulation saw Daniel lead the crew and help the crew in times of crisis. Daniel's time on the Invincible had held him in good stead and certainly kept him flowing in enthusiasm till the end of the course.
Stardate 238309.05: I have seen many young Ensign's pass through my doors over the years, a lot of them still arrogant and cocky. However there's always the exceptional minority that are born to lead others through bad times and others, I truly believe great things could become of this young man, if he sticks at it and produces only the best, much in the same way he has given me these past two years. I hope one day to here of this young mans success and place with the rest. Such as Kirk, Picard and Janeway. This young man has an extraordinary ability to lead and his manner and work ethic is certainly one to be proud of and admired. I wish him every luck for the future and hope he makes his Commanding Officers proud like he has made me. - Prof Enrique Shriver
