Ralph Garvin

Ralph Garvin was a human male alive in the mid 23rd century who served in the United Federation of Planets Starfleet.

While at Starfleet Academy, Garvin's roommate was Walter Ellis. The two men became very good friends during their time at the academy.

Some time after graduating from the academy, Garvin was posted to the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) as a security officer, with the rank of Lieutenant. In 2268 Garvin was one of the Enterprise crew members killed by the dikironium cloud creature. Because of this, Garvin's former roommate Walter Ellis became deeply resentful of Captain James T. Kirk until the capture of the ship Ellis was serving on by the Q|omnipotent being Trelane forced Kirk and Ellis to work together.
