Fleet History

Fleet Four officially went active on the 17th October 1997, under the command of Commodore Jeff Field. It was a major milestone for STar-Fleet, and helped to demonstrate how successful the WeBB had become.

It's original purpose was to combat the Crag. This race that were cute fluffy teddy bears that resembled Ewoks were rampaging their way across the Romulan Empire and on into Federation territory. Of course eventually at the end of the Crag War (read Cpt. Bligh's Speech for more information), they joined the Federation and became part of the culture of Fleet 4.

After the War, Fleet 4 underwent an administraton change, as Jeff Field resigned shortly after, and his AFComm, Fleet Captain Colin Wyers assumed the FComm role. When Colin took an eLOA, he left the fleet in the hands of his AFComm, then Captain, Larry Garfield.

When Mike Bourdaa was elected president in July of 1998, Colin was made FComm of the newly created Fleet 6, and Larry was promoted to full FComm, a role he held until being elected president himself in August 2001.

During his tenure, Larry had several AFComms. His first, Captain Deanne Morgan, left Fleet 4 to become AFComm-5 in October 1998 and was replaced by Captain Nikolle Burchett. When Niki was made FComm-5 in March 1999, Columbus CO Paul Jones was made AFComm-4. When Paul resigned in October 2000 due to rl, he was replaced by Asimov CO Emma Rouse-Deane.

Emma was later promoted to full FComm, when Larry was elected President, and took on the services of Montgomery CO Barrett Vogtman as AFComm. When Emma was elected President in August 2002, Barret was named full Fleet Commander.

Barret was made Engineering Director in April 2003, so Columbus CO Ralf Steen took on the Fleet Commander mantle. He would then be replaced later on by Emma Rouse-Deane who remained Fcomm until President Edgar Cramer stepped down as President in December 2004 and Emma was elevated to President.

Between December 2004 and April 2005, the Fleet was in the careful hands of SB202 Commander Tara Manini with Aaron Bruno as her assistant. In April 2005 Emma was reappointed as Fleet Commander with the new cabinet under President Dipper, where she ran the fleet with the assistance of Columbus CO Bob Hillis

When Emma was made Internet Director in February 2006, Columbus CO and AFComm Bob Hillis took up the challenge and was appointed Fleet Commander.
