FASA Timeline

U.S.S. Chandley

The Federation Starship Fife, a Chandley class frigate, was named for Commodore Charles Vincent Fife, commander of a Western Alliance naval squadron during the Persian Gulf campaigns of the Eugenics Wars on Earth. The Fife's hull was laid down at the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards in orbit of Mars on Reference Stardate 2/1810 (October 2218), and was commissioned on Reference Stardate 2/1902 (February 2219). On Reference Stardate 2/2306.03 (3 June 2223), the Fife, commanded by Captain Jason Culver, encountered a Doomsday Machine near the planet Ectair, and was only able to defeat it with the aid of the Dwarfstar class trader Pride O'Rigel, a converted Romulan Gallant Wing class warship, the Deletham Mosarum (Wind Defender), and the Cosmos Royale, known as "the floating crap game.".^[1]

The Fife's senior staff at the time of the incident included Captain Culver, commanding officer; Commander Lydia C. Marston, first officer; Lieutenant Commander Sen-Wu Chiang, science officer; Lieutenant Commander Helmut Albrecht, chief engineer; Lieutenant Commander Jehan Qamer, chief medical officer; Lieutenant Eric J. Lonnquist, helmsman; Lieutenant Banda, navigator; Lieutenant Storan, communications and damage control; and Lieutenant Gormoj Vrune, security. Other officers included Lieutenant Marion White, assistant engineer; Lieutenant Thomas Renner, assistant science officer; Lieutenant Jennifer Reed and Lieutenant, j.g. S'vrak Volara, assistant medical officers; Ensign Kevin Donnelly, assistant navigator; Ensign Stefan Voronov, assistant communications officer; Chief Petty Officer Stewart Austin, transporter chief; as well as Lieutenant, j.g. William Kuanda and Ensigns Veronica St. Cyr, U'Vren, and Zaitids, security officers. The Marine contingent commandant was Lieutenant Colonel^[2] Robert L. Gray, and its enlisted members were overseen by Sergeant Major Mbandwe. Private Iesu Koshinara was a junior Marine assigned to the Fife's detachment.^[1]

↑ Gray was listed as Commander, a Star Fleet naval rank, despite his position as commandant of the Marine contingent. More appropriately, and in line with other Marine officers depicted on Star Trek, such as Colonel West and Major Hayes, his rank has been adjusted to its Marine equivalent, Lieutenant Colonel.
