Author's Response: I think the whole notion of civilians on Starfleet ships has been a rather unpopular theme with fans and at least one prominent starship captain. I always thought it made inherent sense if Starfleet considers itself primarily a science and exploratory service. Of course, if a ship gets into a life-or-death battle every other week, it doesn't seem like such a good idea anymore

Thanks for pointing this story out to me. I thought I had looked at all of the stories you had lodged on AdA.
Interesting discussion about civilians - something that is not often addressed in fanfic. And the discussion about Eagle's wounds is reminiscent of the Enterprise homecoming scene in ST III.
Looking forward to the introduction of the niners - which this seems to be heralding...
Thanks!! rbs
