Vakel Shon

Captain Vakel Shon is a Starfleet Captain of Andorian origin in service in the early 25th century. Shon was one of three commanding officers summoned to DS9 in 2412 to discuss the Borg threat that was developing in the Alpha Quadrant. As talks began, the station was attacked by thousands of Dominion ships, forcing Starfleet to abandon it. Shon assisted James Copper with leading the conference delegates to safety, arriving at Bajor where he assisted him in building an attack force to retake DS9. At the conclusion of the crisis, Shon was left without a command after the USS Defiant was destroyed, however was reassigned to command the new USS Enterprise.
