Oh, wow, I missed that one entirely! Good stuff, though.
I wonder what rank we can expect Clara to be now, if she was an Ensign back then. If she was fresh out of Academy, then she has ... uh, 49 years under her belt. So she's either hit flag rank or she's retired and become a consultant or something.

Starfleet Personnel Command
Admiral Sousa,
You expressed a direct interest in the following officers, and I wondered if you had any thoughts on their future assignments with the wind-down of the Arcadian War? All of them are considered among the most desired appointees in their grades and disciplines.
Captain Samhaya Mrr'shan
[ ][MRR] Promote to Commodore
[ ][MRR] Leave as Captain and appoint to shore billet
[ ][MRR] Leave as Captain and appoint to starship (not available next To Boldly Go vote)
Commodore Nash ka'Sharren
[ ][NASH] Promote to Rear Admiral
[ ][NASH] Assign to Sector Task Force <Sector>
[ ][NASH] Assign to Starbase <Number>
[ ][NASH] Assign to Staff at Starfleet Command
[ ][NASH] Assign to Staff at Starfleet Operations
[ ][NASH] Assign to Staff at Starfleet Tactical
Commodore Michel Thuir
[ ][THUIR] Promote to Rear Admiral
[ ][THUIR] Assign to Sector Task Force <Sector>
[ ][THUIR] Assign to Starbase <Number>
[ ][THUIR] Assign to Staff at Starfleet Command
[ ][THUIR] Assign to Staff at Starfleet Operations
[ ][THUIR] Assign to Staff at Starfleet Tactical
Captain Straak (When his FYM ends and he is promoted to Commodore)
[ ][ROCK] Transfer to Starfleet Academy
[ ][ROCK] Transfer to Ship Design Bureau
[ ][ROCK] Transfer to Starfleet Engineering Command
[ ][ROCK] Write-in
Commodore Saavik
[ ][SAAVIK] Leave in Starfleet Tactical
[ ][SAAVIK] Assign to Starbase <Number>
[ ][SAAVIK] Assign to Task Force
[ ][SAAVIK] Transfer to Starfleet Academy
We definitely want to put MrrShan on the shore billet so she can jump back into the Explorer Corps asap. Nash should join the GBZ fleet where she can wreak despair and horror upon the spoonheads. Not so sure about the others.
[X][ROCK] Transfer to Starfleet Engineering Command
This or the academy, I think he would enjoy engineering command more
[X][MRR] Leave as Captain and appoint to shore billet
Feel like this should round her out in preparation for being a Commodore.
[X][MRR] Leave as Captain and appoint to shore billet
Losing a ship, even when you save the entire crew, is a blow to a captain. Also Mrr'shan has been on space duty a long time. I say give her a shore post for a couple of years, and then we can move her to Commodore in an operations post.
[X][NASH] Assign to Staff at Starfleet Command
If we're considering ka'Sharren for the very highest ranks down then line, then some experience with staff at Starfleet command will be invaluable to her career. It'll let her serve directly under the next Commander of Starfleet.
[X][THUIR] Assign to Sector Task Force - Licori Border Zone
Thuir on the other hand has been away from space duty for a long time before the Licori war. Let him get some more experience commanding large ship groups over in the Licori Border Zone.
[X][ROCK] Transfer to Starfleet Engineering Command
Supervising some of those prospectors might be just the ticket to use Straak's talents. Let him have access to the latest and greatest in space rocks.
[X][SAAVIK] Assign to Task Force - Ferasa Sector
The woman is a walking disaster magnet. Let's let her draw the fire of whatever godawful thing lurches out of our rimwards border.
[X][MRR] Promote to Commodore
[X][NASH] Promote to Rear Admiral
[X][THUIR] Promote to Rear Admiral
[X][ROCK] Transfer to Ship Design Bureau
"Ship Design Bureau" is the name of our research branch, for anyone who might not remember that. He can help with sensor design or minerals research. Maybe his assignment is what's represented by the boost to VSA during their geo sensors research we just voted for?

[X][THUIR] Assign to Sector Task Force - Licori Border Zone

[X][ROCK] Transfer to Starfleet Engineering Command
[X][SAAVIK] Assign to Task Force - Ferasa Sector
Why do people want to sabotage the careers of our (former) EC captains? If they have enough merits to deserve a promotion and enough TIR to justify one they should be promoted. EC captains already have a severe disadvantage compared to other officers as far as advancement goes, our vice admirals all either never served in the EC or are much older than their peers, like Sulu and Uhura. Why deliberately vote to make that even worse?

Because most of them are Explorer Captains to be exactly that, not to climb the ladder.
Keeping them ship-sized or nearby is doing them a favor, not hindering them.

None of them have more than five years in their current rank except Straak. And where are you getting that Sulu and Uhura are significantly older than their peers? Your complaints are groundless.

True. Spending ten years as a commodore before making rear admiral is far from unreasonable, and Mrr'shan was promoted directly to captain when she took over the Enterprise.
