Service Report
Captain Gregory Church U.S.S. Saber
Karrade taken on as almost a last minute decision has proven to be a well worth addition to both my crew and my security team. Fresh out of the Academy and still had the willing and want to learn to be better than he was. Well versed in different weapons and an asset to any away mission.
Commendations -
Bravery in the face of Danger to both self and Others -
Away mission to Aveena IV, Ensign Thidhe risked personal safety to protect injured crewman during Romulan offensive.
*********************************************************************************
Captain Saransha Wells U.S.S. Kaizen
Karrade, has made the transition from a cruiser class ship to the smaller vessel with great ease, and has managed to fit into our smaller family very well. I have come to value his insights as both one of my tactical officers as well as a valued member of my bridge crew. That being said however, Karrade is still very much like most Andorian’s, quick to temper and sees most confrontations as a challenge, but should a situation devolve into fire fight there isn’t a better officer to pull ones assets out of the fire.
Commendations -
Distinction of Service -
Through quick thinking cluster fired multiple torpedoes manually while enemy ship shields compromised despite severe personal injury
Promotion - Ensign to Lieutenant
For continued service, going above and beyond the call of duty. Starfleet Command recognises that Ensign Karrade Thidhe be promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, with all the rights and privileges there in.
Service Report U.S.S. End Game Unavailable - Captain Deceased.
**************************************************************************************
Captain Denthek Vergash U.S.S. Destitute
When Karrade was thrust upon my crew, I knew only one thing. I didn’t want that a man who couldn’t keep his emotions in check in any place of command with my crew. Having learned the details of his demotion I still stood by that decision. It was with great reluctance that I found myself having to rely upon a man who would take it upon himself to simply disregard Starfleet Regulations and protocol. However, I am a great believer in the human phrase “Actions speak Louder than words”. Karrade isn’t a talker, he is a risk taker and a man of action. The more dealings I had with him the more I found that I trusted in both his insights, and his judgement. Karrade proved that in difficult situations he could be relied upon to indeed follow orders and keep himself and the crew out to too much trouble. He has served with distinction and has demonstrated that he will, willingly put himself into harms way in order to safe guard his crew members. Granted the position of Weapons Officer after Lieutenant Caspian was injured.
Commendations -
Courage Under Fire -
For ensuring that the away team including Command Staff were beamed to safety while diplomatic talks with Klingon Garrison Commander lead to be nothing more than a deception.
Starfleet Citation for Conspicuous Gallantry -
For piloting a Shuttle Craft through enemy shielding allowing captured crew members to be beamed to Safety.
Distinction of Service -
While Command Staff on away mission, Ensign Thidhe played a pivotal role in destroying Klingon Battle group “Shadow Talon” . Granted new role as Weapons Officer.
Promotion -
For demonstrating unswerving ability, promoted to the rank of Lieutenant.

Took more Crew on today, one came highly recommended Karrade Thidhe, I know the background and the stories, but I’ve served with Denthek on the Maryland and I whole heartedly respect his judgement, so if he trusts him, then I shall. He replaces a good man though, I shall miss Lucieve at the weapons and tactical station, but needs must.
<Extract from Personal Log> Stardate Classified
My new Tactical officer is doing well, he’s fit in with the crew very smoothly, I dare say that he’s actually made some friends. Had to Patrol the Alpha Centauri sector, and quite frankly the crew aren’t ready for it, most of them are used to serving on the bigger starships, and are finding the adjustments difficult. However Karrade, he’s doing very well, he has served on an Escort class ship before and the Halberd is bigger than the previous ship, so he is helping the other members of the crew fit into the cramped surroundings. Who would of ever thought of it, an Andorian Tactical officer and a counsellor all rolled into one.
<Extract from Captains Final Log> Stardate Classified
Incursion into Reman space is not going well, the ship has been hounded by constant attacks and the crew aren’t holding together as well I had hoped. Karrade has come into a world of his own, he is functioning better than my first officer. The Reman’s are hiding something and they don’t want Starfleet finding out, or anyone else for that matter. *Break in Recording*
**Log Shows that Captain Tallis severely injured during combat, First officer deceased. Lieutenant Thidhe given Field Promotion to Commander and Command of U.S.S. Halberd, all command codes and command functions transferred.**
******************************************************
Admiral Adrian Arnold Starfleet Command
Field Commander Thidhe has performed his duty well and returned the battered U.S.S. Halberd including vital strategic information back to a safety, however allowing him to retain his rank would undermine the chain of command and the lessons hopefully learned from his reprimand. However, it is the judgement of the command Staff that the Lieutenant be allowed to retain the command of the afore mentioned Halberd.
Reprimands
- Striking a Superior Officer
< Extract from Court Martial Admiral Juliette Samson Residing closing speech>
Despite the circumstances, and despite the lieutenants defence the chain of command exists for a reason and it is not the place for an Ensign, Lieutenant or person of higher rank to question that. Striking a superior officer is paramount to treason, however it is the finding of this court that Officer Thidhe‘s response was the result of an emotion outburst that will not happen again.
It is because of this, that we find the defendant guilty of all charges. The Sentence be that he is removed from Command of the U.S.S. End Game and be reduced in rank from Lieutenant back to Ensign, and that privileges given, be subsequently removed. A formal report will be held in his record and we will have to work, and work hard to regain the respect he once had.
Case Closed.
Psychological Evaluation
Counsellor Karen Petrie Starfleet Medical Core
Upon first readings Karrade would seam almost cold, however he is often an individual of deep feelings and finds it difficult to open up to those around him. Once a bond is made however, Karrade will do anything and everything in his power to safeguard them. Having never competed in his peoples famous Ushaan, he shows a certain need to prove himself. However there is nothing negative about that, more like a deep seated need to better oneself. Karrade’s demotion has done nothing to hinder him, although he still maintains that should the situation replay again, he would make the same decision. The extra time as an Ensign allowed him to reflect on how others perceive him and how a different attitude can make a difference.
All in all a well rounded person, that can be a little headstrong. However, I believe that time will temper him.
