==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: Captain's Log==
===by Andy Catterick===
SD: 2261.137
Scene: Ready Room, USS HOOD
“Captain’s log stardate 2261.137.  I am more pleased then I would have imagined to report that HOOD is underway and leaving the Celes System behind her.  The meeting with our doppelganger from the multiverse was an eye opening experience to the say the least but, in the end, it ended well enough.  Command has clamped a security blanket down on the whole mission which given the relatively few numbers of crew members who actually saw anything, or saw enough of anything important, the secrecy might even last.  For awhile at least.  And with the destruction of the TSS HOOD we were able to complete the milk run portion of our ‘official’ mission which, happily, included several days of shore leave for the crew.
As far as the crew goes we have had the usual round of comings and goings with two notable exceptions.  First, Lieutenant Kim Steering was poached out from under us while she was on a mission to take the prize ship in.  Apparently LEXINGTON’s new captain pulled some strings and command approved the transfer.  I don’t know Captain Octavian or why it was so important he steal my helmsman but I’m less then pleased to lose such a fine officer, especially one we had invested so much in.  This leaves a big hole at the helm and I will be meeting with Commander Merrick later in the day to discuss options for doing so. 
Next, Chief of Security John DeSimms was transferred back to Special Ops.  It was probably the best move for all.  I had concerns when he initially requested a fleet berth that someone with his skills and mission experience would have a hard time adjusting to life in the ‘real’ navy.  I can’t say if that’s why he opted to transfer back but I was certainly surprised at how fast the actual assignment was approved after he requested transfer.  Fortunately we were able to acquire a replacement officer in the form of Lieutenant Commander Rick Payne.  I haven’t been able to spend much time with him since he came aboard but his record certainly speaks for itself.  As does some of the changes he has already implemented.
In terms of  our current mission, well as far as  I’m concerned we haven’t really received one yet.  Officially we are enroute to sector 7GY2 where we are to begin a standard patrol.  I’m don’t think it likely that ‘Fleet will leave a CONSTITUTION class starship stooging around examining space dust overly long.  I just hope out next mission is a bit different then the past few.  I’ve had my fill of political intrigue and fights to the death. 
End Log.”
Respectfully,
Andy
