Just idly musing about the Firekka.
The TCS Firekka is CVE-10. There were, of course, only nine CVEs in the initial run of Wake-class carriers.
It's safe to assume that at some point after the TCS Tarawa returns from Kilrah the Confederation decided that CVEs might be a potentially war-winning weapon and starting converting additional transports. The Firekka was presumably the first of these Block-II CVEs, maybe with a few refinements from lessons learned in Operation Back Lash, maybe not.
I'm curious as to how the Standoff team (or anyone else) sees the Firekka's history, when it was built and entered service, that sort of thing. It's got to have been built by 2667.356, in order for Popsicle to have served on it for a year by that date in 2668...
