       Briefing room
       Dan had left engineering for the briefing room and entered
       saying "Apologies for being late, I was assigning engineers.
       What have I missed?"

       Jacob turned around and saw Lieutenant Howell and nodded. It was
       great to see him. He remembered when he was in his tuxedo
       attending his wedding as his Best Man. Now, he was in his
       uniform. He said to him "You haven't missed much. Me and Brooke
       just arrived after the drill ended."

       both of your files. You both did outstanding work.  Had you not
       gone into the reserves you could be full Lieutenants. Well
       regardless of that let's get started." He said looking at
       everyone.  "What did you think from the moment the intruder
       alert was announced. Did you believe it could be real or simply
       a drill? Did you notice any members of the crew lacking in speed
       to get to their posts.  You don't have to name people.  And do
       you feel that this crew is ready for combat if it comes to it?"

       Jacob looked at Lieutenant Shepard and said "Well, when I heard
       the alarm, I immediately took action. I got me and Brooke a
       phaser and knew it was best to report to the Bridge to see what
       was going on and what needed to be done." He looked at his wife
       and smiled.

       Josh nodded to Commander Howell. "Negative sir.  We just
       started, no need to be sorry."
       Josh then turned his attention back to Ensign Edwards.

       Josh typed on his PADD. "Very good.  I do have one thing to say
       though and it might not be standard practice on a starship,  but
       you Mr. Edwards are assigned to Engineering. That's your post,
       and where you was supposed to go for your posting,  Mrs Edwards
       was correct in coming to the bridge as she is a science officer
       and van assist in scanning.  I get you wanting to protect her or
       each other but some commanding officers would want you to report
       to your designated area,  unless you are closer to the bridge
       then I completely understand."
       Josh passed his PADD to Commander Howell to show him all of the
       events of the drill.  "Commander with your experience do you
       feel that this crew can handle combat if it comes down to it
       based off these findings?"
       Josh then raised his hands off the table slightly to express a
       serious point. "Please know this ladies and gentlemen. I'm not
       bashingthe crew or implying they are unfit or anything like
       that.  I'm just trying to get an outline on what areas need to
       be addressed for future drills to avoid certain issues. I
       personally think everyone did a great job,  some minor issues
       bit nothing that can't be fixed.  And speaking of fixing
       commander,  i believe such bay comm units are down,  because
       doctor Garrett informed me that she didn't hear the statement of
       reporting to the bridge.  If you could look into that please.
       Now what do you all think the crew did?  What could be done
       better? " Josh looked at everyone while they all thought to
       themselves.

       Howell was listening to the Lieutenant who was actually doing
       quite a good job. As Shepard passed the PADD over to him, Dan
       inspected the data on it before allowing the Lieutenant to
       finish, replying "As it stands, I think the crew could only just
       cope with low level combat and mean just. A lot of work needs
       doing and department efficiency ratings need to go up as well
       including engineering." Dan finished before continuing "and i'll
       dispatch a team down to sickbay to have a look at the comm
       system."

       "I voiced my opinion earlier on the bridge. For the benefit of
       the rest of you- here's the highlights: No. Bad. Wrong. Why the
       hell would you give a full ship drill on a new crew a day out of
       port? It was punitive and would probably result in the crew
       being more mistrusting. But yeah- no one did terribly. No one
       died. High marks all around. Now bring out the champagne so we
       can toast how awesome we all are... but seriously, Champagne
       would be lovely."
       Droba was more than a little sarcastic in the way she relayed
       the information but what could be expected?

       Brooke looked back at her husband and returned his smile as she
       listened to what he had to say along with Lieutenant Shepard and
       the others. With being off duty her and Jacob had stuck together
       and it would of meant taking separate turbo lifts to get them to
       their destinations. However it wasn't the time to continue
       explanations as it was now over and they had to analyse the
       strengths and weaknesses and how they could work together as a
       crew to become more efficient. " I understand that we've only

       Josh stood up and nodded his head to everyone.  "Great job
       everyone.  Now we have a few more hours before we reach
       Cardassia IV, so if you're not on duty get some rest and relax,
       if you are please get back to your stations.  Dismissed. " Josh
       then walked back out on to the bridge.

       Josh walked back over to the captains chair and sat down.  Not
       looking at his brother but asked him.  "So what's our current
       status brother?"

       [move]12 Hours Later[/move]
       Approaching Cardassia IV
       The journey to Cardassia IV had proved uneventful as a far as
       the travelling was concerned even if not actually on the ship,
       they were now only one hour away and the crew would be changing
       over again shortly.
       [First Officers Quarters]
       "Dyson to bridge can i have a status report?" he asked simply as
       he sat on the end of the bed looking at his reflection in the
       mirror.
