Brief Personal History: Birthplace: New Zealand, Terra 1st Cadet Cruise, Military Operations Command. 2nd Cadet Cruise, Military Operations Command. USS Farragut, 2 years. ' Always wanting to be a surgeon, Andrea joined Star Fleet to be of service to all races. Now, after receiving two quick promotions. Dr. Young unexpectedly finds herself already in the role of Chief Medical Officer. A thoroughly competent doctor in several areas, she is now doing what she does best. While aboard the Farragut, Dr. Young served with Lieutenant Kurgot- zuv of Communications. Though she initially enjoyed his company, the friendship soured. Once on shore leave together, Lt. Kurgotzuv got intoxi- cated and abusive, actually striking Dr. Young once. Though she never revealed the occurrence to anyone else, it is a source of secret shame to Kurgotzuv. Although he apologized profusely, he still worries to this day that she will inform the authorities. Young treated him for absinthe detoxifi- cation, and, though they are no longer friends, she will never reveal the incident to anyone. She is a good friend of Dr. O'Grady, whose odd sense of humor, intense interest in Pathology, and cynical view are amusing to her. He thinks she is a fine surgeon. Feeling he would never be talented enough for the post of Chief Medical Officer, he contents himself with autopsies. Personality: Motivations/Desires/Goals'. Dr. Young eventually wants to work as Chief Medical Officer aboard one of the Reliant class research cruisers, where "the real research in the Federation is being done." To that end, she will work ambitiously and diligently, while waiting for her chance to transfer to Galaxy Exploration Command. After that, she would not object to a position in Star Fleet's Office of the Surgeon General. Aware there has never been a woman Surgeon General, she feels it may be time for one, namely, her. Manner: Dr. Young is confident without being cocky, self-assured without being egotistical. She is good at what she does and knows it, but she would never deliberately intimidate anyone else, no matter what. Despite her occupation, she does not like bloodshed, and "prefers" to treat wounds received in non-violent circumstances. She is not especially in favor of having Romulans aboard, but realizes [ it offers an opportunity to pick up some experience in Romulan medicine.
