Welcome to the forum Mr. Jones, and thank you for your service.

So I was wondering, does TJ stand for "Technical Jargon?"

Not true. There was Admiral Nechayev in TNG and I remember seeing Janeway as an Admiral as well, in First Contact if I'm not mistaken.

Heh, thanks mmore. I've been around a while, just haven't felt the need to jump into the fray that often.

And no, LOL, it doesn't. Though, I suppose that since I'm an old nuclear-engineering-technician-turned-electrician-turned-broadcast journalist-turned-audiovisual specialist, it might as well be.

"T.J. Jones" is short for Tyler Jamison Jones, a character I played in an old free-form Star Trek RPG from '94-'01. My avatar is a portrait a friend made of him.

When you're in a combat situation in the Army no one would wear rank cause then the bad guys know who to shoot... I suppose that analogy breaks down a bit on the bridge of a starship... but it's a good guess!

When in doubt...shoot the one in the center chair if you are blitzing the bridge.

Not mistaken just confused...Janeway was an admiral in "Nemesis"

It was Nemesis. Voyager had just gone missing a year previous to First Contact.
