Re: Had Sisko Always Been Command Track

That indeed comes from "Conundrum" Okudagrams, which the blu-raying process ought to make fully legible to the discerning audience
Except neither La Forge's nor Riker's file were shown in "Conundrum". And the ones shown (Crusher, Data, Troi, Picard, MacDuff, and Ro Laren) are perfectly legible even on DVD. Crusher was 8 years at the Academy and Ro Laren 6 years (this was later changed to 4 years in "The Next Phase").

One example of this is that in TNG, Dr. Crusher is a full commander, but with only one exception, she is not seen to take command
Crusher was shown in command in "Thine Own Self". This episode also stated that non-line officers had to take the bridge officer's test to achieve commander-rank and be able to take command.
