Halsey

Halsey was a celebrated figure in Earth and/or Federation history. A statue of Halsey stood in one of the main halls on the grounds of Starfleet Academy, along side those of James T. Kirk and William T. Riker. (TNG short story: "I Am Become Death")


 * This may be a reference to Admiral William Halsey, Jr., a US naval commander during World War II, who employed the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise as his flagship. However, as the other figures in the Academy hall are refered to as "explorers and scientists," it's also possible this Halsey is a Trek-era hero.
