Alice Kamiguwa

Lieutenant Commander Alice Kamiguwa is a Security/Tactical officer currently assigned to Joint Task Force Bellerophon, currently on detached duty.

## Early Life

On August 31st, 2395; Alice Kamiguwa was born in Ottawa, Ontario. Her parents: CMDR Hikaru Kamiguwa and CMDR Gina Longfoot, despite being in Starfleet, wanted to raise Alice in Ottawa. So while one parent was on tour, the other helped raise Alice at the family's home in the Chinatown area of Ottawa. Growing up, Alice knew she wanted to join Starfleet, while also representing Canada at the Olympics in Archery,
And while she did train in the latter, the former ended up taking top priority when both of Alice's parents were listed as MIA when their ship: The *U.S.S. Ohio* was ambushed by an Orion raiding party.

## Starfleet Career before joining Joint Task Force Bellerophon

Alice Kamiguwa's Starfleet career started with a bang: when on an Academy training mission, the ship she was on: the *U.S.S. Bytown* was attacked by the Borg. During the attack, the *Bytown's* senior officers were killed or assimilated, as well as attempting to assimilate midshipmen, including attempting to assimilate Alice. However, some quick thinking by a few of Alice's crewmates and help from the Emergency Medical Hologram aboard the *Bytown* ended up saving Alice from becoming one with the Borg, leaving her with quite a few Borg implants, but without the connection to the Borg Collective. After finding out that most, if not all of the *Bytown's* senior officers were either dead or assimilated; Kamiguwa took temporary command of the *Bytown*, and brought the ship limping back to Earth. A rather solemn graduation ceremony at the Academy followed, during which Alice Kamiguwa was given the rank of Ensign, and awarded both the Purple Heart and a Bronze Star.

After Graduation, Alice bounced around from ship to ship during the Iconian War. Since Graduation, LT Kamiguwa has served on the following vessels as both a Tactical and Security:

* USS *Tyson* (Constitution Class)
* USS *Mackenzie King* (Cheyenne Class)
* USS *Jack Churchill* (Galaxy Class)
* USS *Cohen* (Sovereign Class)
* USS *Leo Major* (Defiant Class)
* USS *Arthur Currie* (Odyssey Class)

## Career since joining Joint Task Force Bellerophon

After serving on the *Arthur Currie*, Starfleet Command assigned then-LT Kamiguwa to Joint Task Force Bellerophon. After arriving, JTFB leadership assigned Then-LT Kamiguwa to the task force's Floating Officer Roster, leaving her to fill in wherever she's needed: whether it's on the USS *Gekka**,* USS *Brazzaville**, R.R.W. Dhuil ch'S'harien,* or the USS *Boudicca**.*

For a few weeks, LCDR Kamiguwa was a MACO Candidate, but was removed from the program with predjudice after breaking OPSEC about an action she was on.

After returning to Starbase Olympus and being confined to quarters, LCDR Kamiguwa was tapped to become the Chief Tactical Officer of the USS *Gekka*.
