Professor Wayne King-Meiouf of the University of ProximaFirefly has only been in post for a few days but already the DDS seems to be changing rapidly beyond recognition. Just how could someone who had not planned to be the DDS Commander managed to come up with so many plans for change so quickly?
The answer is of course, he hasn't. Firefly has given his two deputies Knobhead and Sea Urchin free rein to make the changes to the DDS they have wanted for months or even years. Firefly has said he wants a much more democratic approach to the DDS, and to let the true experts lead innovation. Well he is being true to his word.
Many of the changes have been cosmetic of course, it doesn't take long to change the name of a department. Even the fleet changes are mostly administrative and the new ORBAT reflects the DDS' fleet allocation as it actually is without the bureaucratic layer of the old fleet system.
However bigger changes are on the horizon, these though will be based on the various reviews that are ongoing. Firefly is intent on redefining the DDS for the 2110s and beyond. This is truly the age of change.
