In Trek fandom, we often think about the badmirals. However, we never consider radmirals. With that in mind, who do you think is the best admiral? This includes commodores, vice admirals, rear admirals, etcetera.
I’m not counting main characters who got promoted after their main series e.g Picard, Kirk, Janeway, La Forge, etcetera.
Admiral April and Admiral Forrest are both solid options.
I think April did a really solid job of showing what a great but imperfect leader looks like in Ad Astra per Aspera.
Forrest was supportive and helpful. Willing to bend the rules to support his people rather than vice versa.
