Edward Jellico

Admiral Edward Jellico is a career Starfleet officer who has attracted some criticism for his command style by some officers, but received praise by many others.

He was in 2354 a commander and dean of the students at Starfleet Academy when Mackenzie Calhoun attended there. (NF novel: Stone and Anvil)

After commanding the USS Cairo for many years, he assumed temporary command of the USS Enterprise-D in 2369. By 2373, Jellico had been promoted to Admiral and was in overall command of Deep Space 5. (TNG episodes: "Chain of Command, Parts I & II"; and NF novel: House of Cards).
