USS Gloucester (23rd century)

The USS Gloucester was a Federation starship, a long-range patrol ship in Starfleet service in the 23rd century. It was under the command of Captain Aurobindo Korrapati. 

Service history
At some point before 2246, the Human Aurobindo Korrapati served as first officer and then captain of the Gloucester. During Korrapati's tenure, the ship saw combat and experienced tough scrapes, including against Orion pirates and other marauders. The Gloucester was involved in defenting civilian merchant shipping and the occasional Federation colony. When reviewing Korrapati's service record, Commander Philippa Georgiou considered that as evidence for the Human's experience. 

After the USS Nowlan was destroyed on January 03, 2267, the Gloucester recovered the ship's disaster record buoy.
