Jellico’s reputation for being an ass goes beyond the hull of the Enterprise, hence Mariner’s comment about being assigned a “Jellico-type” captain. But every time I watch “Chain of Command,” sometimes it’s hard to tell of Geordi, Riker and Troi aren’t being a bunch of unprofessional softies.
Is Jellico too strict? Is Riker too casual? Is there room for both styles in Starfleet?
But I would give Jellico a huge advantage over Riker- namely that he basically defeated the Cardassian Empire through being a pure hard-ass.
If we are ranking captains, yes, Jellico totally wins. But I can understand why Jellico and Riker dislike each other.
True. Sorry, I forgot my own post about who was a better captain is not actually what this thread is about. It’s been a long morning.
