:0:0

Warning: contains spoilers for Star Trek #7!A new Star Trek comic has revealed the most decorated officer in Starfleet history - and it is not Captain Kirk. There have been many legendary officers in the annals of Starfleet history, but a text piece in IDW Publishing’s Star Trek #7 reveals the one Captain who has had the most medals and decorations for service.
The issue is written by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, drawn by Mike Feehan, colored by Lee Loughridge and lettered by Clayton Cowles. Captain Sisko and the crew of the Theseus are traveling to the Cardassian homeworld to search for the mythical Orb of Destruction before Kahless and his fanatical Red Path cult can find it. A text piece, titled "The War Record of Benjamin Sisko" reveals that Captain Sisko is the most decorated officer in Starfleet history, just barely topping the record set by Garth of Izar, a hero of the 23rd century Klingon Wars.

For seven seasons, Captain Benjamin Sisko led the crew of Deep Space Nine, shepherding them through some of the most turbulent times in galactic history. The show began with the discovery of a stable wormhole near the planet Bajor, where Deep Space Nine was located. Sisko, who took command of the station around the same time, suddenly found himself in charge of one of the most strategically important places in the galaxy. Two years into Sisko's tenure, the Dominion made their presence known, joining forces with the Cardassians and the Breen to mount a bloody war against the Federation and its allies. As leader of Deep Space Nine, Sisko fought in many of the Dominion War’s first battles, as well as some of its most decisive - and it did not go without being recognized.
