"You are in the Guests and Visitors Area"

The PeaceKeeper is based on the exploration and scientific arm of the United Federation of Planets (STARFLEET) as depicted in the television shows, movies and books of STAR TREK. Therefore, the PeaceKeeper has its own Command organization while still concentrating its efforts primarily as a fan club. The departments, as you will see is not only where all the work that runs our chapter is accomplished, but it is also the structure, which allows our membership to maximize their chapter involvement.

DUTY ASSIGNMENTS

When a person joins our chapter, they pick a department right away.  This gives the members an outlet for their creativity and also provides them with a smaller group of people who are interested in some of the same aspects of Trek that they find so fascinating. On the chapter level, this selection also gives the group some ideas as to what talents we might expect from the member in the future. In each department the structure ranges from its general members (none enlisted personnel) to becoming a future department head leader with rank and privileges accordingly.

The Peacekeeper's department structure is as follows.

• Engineering

• Science

• Medical

• Crew Master -  [Default if no preference is desired].

• Operations

• Cadets
