Part of Bravo Fleet: Phase 1: Omega

USS Sutherland: In at the deep end

Captain MacLeod's first mission in command of the U.S.S. Sutherland gets complicated as Starfleet Command invokes a highly classified protocol.

Mission Description

Captain MacLeod has assumed command of the U.S.S. Sutherland and assembled a new crew. Shortly after embarking on a routine patrol of the former Romulan Neutral Zone area, he receives a classified communication from Starfleet Command that he cannot share with the crew. With no time to build trust, will the new crew follow him without explanation if he commands them to break with established procedures and directives?
