Taking the Next Step

"Computer, begin recording, personal log Josh Vincent."

"Personal log, stardate 87170.5: It has been strange working alongside crewmates for these past few days, but I've grown to like it. I've been working on my own for so long that I forgot how it felt to know that someone will have your back. My crewmates aboard the Alsea have all been fantastic, which made this decision much harder than I'd hoped. The USS Lotus, flagship of the fleet, the most advanced vessel in Starfleet, is ready for action and there is an opening for Chief Security/Tactical Officer, a position that I've trained for my whole life. I have applied for a transfer to the Lotus so that I may take up a position where I can help the fleet most. If my transfer is approved, it will be hard to leave the crew of the Alsea, but this move will be best for everyone.

I don't know when the transfer will be decided, but with the entire fleet recalled and preparing for action, either against the Klingons, the Romulans, the Azimuth Horizon, or all of the above, I may have to face this threat at my current station. Either way, I know that I will be serving alongside some of the best officers in the galaxy, and we will make it through. Now that repairs are complete and Operations is ready to go, I may get some rest before tomorrow's briefing."

"Computer, end log."
