Profession WarShip Officer

Star Admiral Loretta Gilmour was the commanding officer of the Alliance Naval Star from 3132 to at least 3145.[1]

History[edit]

When Star Admiral Iqbal Lankenau was elected saKhan in 3132, his successor was Star Admiral Loretta Gilmour. Under Admiral Gilmour the Nightlord-class Lynn McKenna and the Alliance Naval Star were a key part of the Raven Alliance defenses against the Draconis Combine and the Federated Suns; when the Raven Alliance began bringing their WarShip fleet out of mothballs the Essex-class Mulhacén and the Fredasa-class Kutkh returned to active service, bringing the Alliance Naval Star up to four active WarShips. The Alliance Naval Star then increased to five WarShips when the Whirlwind-class destroyer William Adams was added to the Star, but the reintegration of the three mothballed ships with the Star didn't go well. The Raven Alliance responded by sending the Star to the spinward frontier of the Alliance for more than a year to conduct training exercises before returning them to active duty and assigning the Star to pirate-hunting missions.[2]

The Alliance Naval Star active pursued pirates throughout the spinward frontier of the alliance before vanishing mysteriously; after a sixteen-month absence the Star reappeared in the Dante system just in time for the launch of the Draconis Combine's invasion of the Federated Suns.[2]
