    We’ve definitely seen cadets serving on ships a few times, and The Wrath of Khan featured a training voyage (though they didn’t seem to be going to anywhere in particular).

    So I agree there’s precedent. I was really just stretching for a way to cheekily suggest the name.

      and Red Squadron in TNG “The First Duty”. (edit- I meant Valiant, from DS9. still “Red Squadron”)

      I think Uhura was also a cadet in SNW first season

        actually, looking at the trailer there are 2 cadets of the Red squadron from USS Valiant in the wall:

        • Karen Farris
        • Dorian Collins, The sole survivor, though in the wall the appear she is listed as ACPO (acting chief petty officer).

        Unfortunately the wall seems to be more an easter egg than anything meaningful.
