Editing Boldly Going:Sylvia Kulkarni (section)

==Career Event: Fleet Cruise==
'''Solved an Engineering Crisis'''

Most Planetary Guard personnel are part-timers, and only a minority of those part-time personnel are Fleet-rated.  However, all members of the Active Planetary Guard Reserve (aka the "full-time Guard") are Fleet-rated, and enlisted members go through the same Basic Training and initial Fleet Cruise as regular Starfleet enlisted.

Sylvia enlisted in 2150, and was fortunate enough to draw Starship duty - indeed, her first cruise was also the shakedown cruise for the first of the new Starship class, U.S.S. Constitution, NX-1700, at the lowly rank of Crewman Apprentice in charge of monitoring power relays on Deck 11 (aka "Observation Deck.")
