Donald Woods (referred to as Dee by his friends) was the Navigator of the USS Justice . (Tales of the Seventh Fleet)

Early life and career[]

Donald Woods was born in {{{Town-to-be-named}}}, on {{{Planet-to-be-named}}} in 2272. He would join Starfleet and began his engineering career in 2290. During his 5-year career in Starfleet, he served on only one starship.

The pre-Justice missions[]

Prior to his posting on the USS Justice, "Dee" Woods attended an advanced training course from Academy graduates. His excellent performance in this course allowed him to be posted as a Navigator at such a young age.

The Justice missions[]

In 2295, Woods was assigned to the USS Justice to take over as Navigator. Although he is still very green, he has proven himself invaluable to the crew. Woods is very intelligent and able to recognize patterns in sensor or navigational data quicker than most. It is because of this that he is usually assigned to work with either Commander Stoeffles or Lieutenant Commander Lupia on certain projects.
