Salak/Professional History: Difference between revisions

'''Salak's Professional History''' has been a long and distinguished one. The Vulcan has served under four Commanding Officers since completing the academy, and his engineering expertise has been put to use with the position as head of the Engineering Department (Acting or Permanently) on no fewer than four Starfleet facilities. He has twice been decorated, as a recipient of both the ''Sarpedion Award'' and ''The Order of Starfleet Merit and Achievement, First Class''.

Salak first attempted to enter the Academy via Andors application system in 2376 but his third placing in the entrance exam was not sufficient to gain him entry. He made a second attempt the following year, narrowly placing first and thus being accepted to the Academy.

<u>'''''Lieutenant Junior Grade''''' (238207.20 - 238501.23)</u>

With the bombing of his quarters fresh in history and his father asking for assistance on [[Andor]], Salak started his time as a Lieutenant Junior Grade with time at the [[Vulcan Embassy, Andoria|Vulcan Embassy]] on Andor. He returned to [[Deep Space 17]] on 238208.20, and was officially granted the position of Chief Engineer at a mission briefing on Stardate 238208.30.

After the ensuing mission, the crew gathered for the annual Awards Ceremony, at which Salak was awarded the TOSMA1. In 238303, just as repairs to the Wallace after the 2382 Bombing were completed, scientists analysing Eratis warned that Deep Space 17 was in danger from the star which showed signs of instability. Salak was injured in a Plasma Fire caused by a ruptured EPS Conduit early in the preparations to defend from the star.

In 238304, Salak was transfered to the [[USS Independence]], under the command of [[Anassasi, Jessa Kyrn|Admiral Anassasi]], as the new head of that vessels own engineering department. Shortly after, the Gorn attempted to invade the region with attacks on multiple Starfleet targets; Independence amongst those under fire. The Warp Core was ejected and the resulting explosion threw the Gorn off the Independence's trail but a "dead" Gorn in Sickbay escaped and managed to break into Engineering. The Gorn was knocked out by gas pumped into the room but not before he'd killed at least one Crewman and badly injured Salak. Salak survived the ships destruction in the Battle of Eratis on stardate 238309.27.

After a short return to Deep Space 17, Salak was assigned as Mission Specialist aboard Cmdr. [[Idril Mar]]'s [[USS Ronin|Ronin]], his first assignment outside the Engineering department since the academy. He did not stay long on Ronin, reassigned on classified business after barely a few months. He was later reassigned again to the [[USS Independence-A|new Independence]] on stardate 238409.10. He served as mission specialist for a single mission, investigating the loss of the [[USS Euphrates]], before the ship was drydocked for a refit. The crew transfered to the [[USS Phoenix-C]] temporarily with Salak serving as Chief Engineer for the mission, Lt. [[Reynolds, Quinn|Reynolds]] assigned to the mission away team.

<u>'''''Lieutenant''''' (238501.23 - Present)</u>

After promotion to full Lieutenant, Salak continued to serve as a Mission Specialist upon the USS Independence-A. On Stardate 238505.04, he was amongst those transferred to the [[USS Tiger]], under the command of long time colleague [[Riley, Sidney|Sidney Riley]]. Tiger is the third ship of the Steamrunner-Wolverine class that he has served upon, having started his career alongside then Ens Riley on the USS Wallace, and acted as ACEO of the Phoenix-C in late 2384.

Salak is a member of the [[:Category:Guild of Vulcans|Guild of Vulcans]], the [[Readers Guild]] and the [[StarFleet Corps of Engineers|Starfleet Corps of Engineers, Starbase 118 Division]]
