Starfleet faces a crisis of identity with the loss of heroes such as Picard and Janeway and seeks to counter that by building up its fighter squadrons in the press, specifically the Angry Apes of Zephyria Base on Mars. By lauding the squadron's new leader, Major Joseph Ryan, and supplying him with the best pilots available, they hope to create a fighting force that not only protects the system's inhabitants, but instills pride in them as well.
