After being promoted to [[Rank|Lieutenant Commander]], Wolfe was transferred to the [[USS Nimitz]], under the command of [[Devan Sash]] as the [[Strategic Operations Officer]]. Shortly after arriving, Wolfe began updating Strategic Operations in a manner not unlike the systems on the [[USS Nights Watch]] which he had briefly toured when offered the Strateical Operations position on the Nimitz. At the time of his arrival, [[Rank|Captain]] Sash was in a coma and receiving treatment. Soon after Sash's revival, the Nimitz's [[First Officer]], [[Rank|Commander]] [[Jeff Hyland]] was reassigned to Starbase Geneva and Wolfe was offered the position of First Officer, with a promotion to the position of [[Rank|Commander]], of the USS Nimitz on 2407.02.04.


'''''Mission One''': A Stitch in Time''

Wolfe’s first mission after assuming the role of First Officer of the [[USS Nimitz]] involved stopping Admiral [[Doenitz]] in his attempt to utilize time travel to distort the timeline in a way favourable to him. On the way to achieve these ends, it became necessary for Wolfe to severely discipline Lieutenant [[Francisco Mendez]] and Crewman [[Debbie Weston]]. Mendez had been insubordinate, showing outward prejudice against alien species and also was showing extremely sexist behaviour to the point where several female enlisted crew were complaining. Wolfe, after consulting with Captain [[Devan Sash]], decided that a reduction in rank and forced sensitivity training was in order. The alternative Wolfe gave to Mendez was being forced out of [[Starfleet]] and dropped off on [[Angel One]] on their way to their mission objective. Mendez chose to give up the level of rank.  Weston, in contrast, had attacked Mendez and broken his arm during a game designed to provide an opportunity for the crew to bond and work together. She was working to avenge Mendez’s behaviour towards her friend Yeoman [[Ansia Rozen]]. Weston was ordered confined to quarters during her off duty periods for an undetermined length of time, to apologize to Mendez for breaking his arm.

Despite personal difficulty in doing so, Edward passed his covetted Strategic Operations position to [[Rank|Lieutenant]] [[Dru Tagon]]. In doing so, he also promoted [[Rank|Ensign (SG)]] [[Jono Janeway]] to Acting [[Tactical Officer|Tactical and Security Chief]]. Edward decided to use this occasion to gauge Janeway's suitability for being promoted to full Tactical and Security Chief and, in doing so had placed the young Ensign under a period of scrutiny.

Following arrival in the Sol system, Edward was faced with what would be his most difficult mission ever, an assault on a secret science facility at the bottom of San Francisco Bay on Earth. Doenitz had created a laboratory featuring stolen advanced equipment, including a time travel device. The possibility of Doenitz changing the timeline made it crucial for Wolfe and the rest of the assault team to destroy the laboratory.

Wolfe beamed down with the Away Team from the Nimitz and worked his way to a site to site transporter system that would take him and the rest of the Away Team to Doentiz's laboratory under San Franciso Bay. After periods of fierce fighting, they made their way to the device and succeeded in destroying it. Unfortunately, in doing so the device was activated, flinging the group three years into the future.

Following their movement forward in time, the crew of the Nimitz found an Earth different than the one they had left. Doenitz had been victorious and a dictatorship had been created on the planet. Despite the fact that they were out of time, and being hunting, two crew members of the Nimitz who had not been a member of the Away Team had not been captured. Crewman [[Debbie Weston]] and Petty Officer Second Class [[T'lexinath]] had been biding their time, trying to figure out how to proceed with the Nimitz that they had stowed away on and then stolen after the crew had been captured. The ship's sensors picked up Sash's comm badge signal and the pair beamed their Away Team back to the Nimitz.

Wolfe soon found himself back on the Nimitz, in less than pristine shape. The group began to formulate a plan to undo what had been done to the timeline. T'lexinath and Weston had been working on a time travel device, a one shot chance, for the three years they'd spent on the Nimitz. Now, it became necessary to find a power source powerful enough to operate the device.

In the meantime, Wolfe and Captain [[Devan Sash]] began to work on how to retrieve their lost crewmembers who had been imprisoned on the island of [[Alcatraz]] in San Francisco Bay. A minor skirmish with a Federation shuttlecraft caused Wolfe to push up his attempt at liberation of the former crew of the Nimitz. As a result, he brought two teams composed of himself, Doctor [[Lemar]] and Lieutenant [[Tarus]] in the first and Lieutenant [[Shimply]] and [[Francesca dela Rosa]] in the other each with their own shuttlecraft to attempt to destroy the emitters that were blocking the Nimitz's transporters.

Wolfe ordered that his shuttlecraft change its transponder signal to mirror the one that was captured by the Nimitz. At the same time he had the other shuttle find a registry to impersonate. It was Edward's hope that that this would shield their approach and allow them to arrive at Earth unhindered. His hope was in vain. Soon, an Earth Patrol vessel began to venture out to their location. Edward found it necessary to pull the shuttle closer to the moon in an attempt to shake the patrol.

Through trickery the two shuttles were able to land on Alcatraz prison on Earth. The team disabled the transporter dampeners and were able to bring the majority of the Nimitz crew to safety. Soon after arriving on the bridge, alert klaxons began to sound and it became clear that the Nimitz would be under attack... again. Wolfe gave the order to start charging a time travel device constructed by [[T'lexinath]] in hir three years hiding on the Nimitz.

After returning to their own time on the future Nimitz, Wolfe transported back to 'his' Nimitz with all of the Away Team. The crew of the future Nimitz flew directly into an attacking marine ship, ensuring that their timeline never came to pass. After finding Captain Sash on Earth, having destroyed Doenitz's time travel device, the Nimitz left for Starbase Geneva.

'''''Mission Two''': A Taste of Hate''

While enroute to [[Starbase Geneva]], Edward received a communique from the First Officer aboard Starbase Geneva. One of the Nimitz's new counsellors, whom they're going to be picking up, has been badly beaten. There are no suspects and no motive. Lieutenant [[Divon Lronen]] is alive but unconscious. Edward pledges to aid the Starbase as they have only a skeletal crew. It also is made clear that there are problems with an anti-alien group called [[Humans for Humanity]]. After discussing the issue with Captain [[Devan Sash]], they ship proceeds with as much haste as is possible for Starbase Geneva.

Upon arriving the crew of the Nimitz finds an undermanned station in a state of extreme disarray. Attacks and violence are on the rise and there are far too many suspects. Edward took control of the Lronen investigation so station security could deal exclusively with their quickly building caseload. The case was quickly closed when Edward found a woman obsessed with Lronen to the point of madness.

Unfortunately, that did not spell the end of troubles for the Nimitz Crew as the group Humans For Humanity losed a deadly virus on Starbase Geneva that only affected humans but could be carried by alien species. Wolfe was one of the first afflicted by the virus and spent most of the mission under intensive medical care.
