Meng Ishkan Tian entered Star Fleet Academy on StarDate 238501.05. Being the third Kerelian accepted to Star Fleet Academy was an honor. The first being [[ma:Lieutenant commander|Lieutenant Commander]] [[ma:Nella Daren|Nella Daren]] and the second [[West,_Heath|Major Heath West]]. Unlike most cadets, Meng knew what posting he wanted after graduation: Star Fleet Intelligence. Ever since he was a little boy he was fascinated with spy and mystery novels from all over the Galaxy. His favorite book was by Earth's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Conrad Joseph Conrad], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Agent ''The Secret Agent'']. Fluency in seven galactic languages, ([[Romulan]], [[Klingon]], [[Cardassian]], [[Chrysalian]], [[Delbian]], [[Tholian]], and the almost impossible [[Jarada]]n) combined with his martial arts skills would seem to be a good fit for a career in intelligence. | Meng Ishkan Tian entered Star Fleet Academy on StarDate 238501.05.

On StarDate 238901.16 Cadet 1st Class Tian was assigned as Tactical Officer for the duration of training on SB 118. Satisfactory completion of this training was required to earn the Ensign rank and to be assigned to the fleet. Cadet Tian performed well as Tactical Officer during a simulated crash of a shuttle on a "N" class moon. Despite injuries he suffered during the simulated crash, Tian gathered pertinent information which was valuable to the rest of the crew. Throughout the simulation he remained positive and upbeat. Hypothesizing unique premises and solutions, "thinking outside the box" as Terrans once use to say, was one of the cadets strengths. | On StarDate 238901.16 Cadet 1st Class Tian was assigned as Tactical Officer for the duration of training on SB 118.

Graduating from this final training is by no means an easy task. Many Star Fleet Academy Graduates fail this required training and do not make it to the fleet. Graduating Class 238901.23 started with seven Cadets and graduated three. Cadet Tian graduated on 238901.23 and promoted to ensign. He was assigned to the USS Discovery-C as an Intelligence Officer. | Graduating from this final training is by no means an easy task.
