| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Post; This is why the Captain of the ship…is the CaptainDiary Excerpt – Ensign Sylvia J. Twittenbaum, USN July 1, 2003 - Dear Diary: Today began my first day on the USS Enterprise. It’s such a large ship! There are so many different people on board, of all ages and sizes. Even though I am a woman, I am amazed at how quickly everyone has accepted me as part of the crew. The officers are friendly, not to mention that the Captain is the perfect example of a gentleman. How lucky I am! July 7, 2003 – Dear Diary: Today the Captain asked me to dine with him at his very own table! How lucky I am to be invited to his stateroom and all. We talked. We drank coffee. He showed me his etchings. I guess not every woman is a s lucky as me on this ship. July 14, 2003 – Dear Diary: Today, the captain made an indecent proposal. I could not believe it! He has no scruples: he said that his love for me was so strong! I denied his advances: I shudder to think that naval decorum could come to this! What am I to do? July 18, 2003 – Dear Diary: The captain again made advances on me today. I refused, as a good woman should. The captain exclaimed that if he could not have me, no one else would. He made his ultimatum: either I sleep with him in three days, or he was going to do something drastic! I asked him what it was: he replied that he would sink the ship with everyone on board! Oh dear: What am I to do now? July 21, 2003 – Dear Diary: Today I saved the lives of 2300 people……
