I'm pretty sure the line is "Bozeman acknowledged." As for why someone of his stature would do something like this, he is a fan, he probably thought it would be a fun thing to do.

No, it's just "Acknowledged."

Madge Sinclair as the Saratoga captain in Star Trek IV. Sinclair, who was well known to audiences from Roots and Trapper John, M.D. went uncredited for her performance, whereas Weidlin and Amritraj were both listed in the end credits for their respective roles.
That's not a cameo.
She later went on to play Geordi's mother in TNG Interface.
Actually,for the new series I hope the producers would consider casting some well known genre stars.Guest roles specifically.
Sci-fi can become a typecasting trap so it would be nice if Trek made somewhat of a virtue of this and cast people from the genre.
You might call it stunt casting or fan pleasing but equally you could call it paying some dues.
Maybe it deserves a thread of it's own but are there any genre faces you would like to see get a Trek credit?

I don't know if these count and are probably well known already, but there's a lot of production crew cameos in What You Leave Behind and These Are The Voyages, and a couple in First Contact.
This I think. On this topic, I've often wondered "just another acting gig or an I've always wanted to be on Star Trek moment".
I'll add one of my favorite actors from 70s American television, Gregory Sierra, probably best known for his work as a regular in Sanford & Sons and Barney Miller before moving onto mostly guest-star or recurring roles, he's had a very successful career. Played a Cardassian in DS9
Mark Sheppard from Supernatural was on an episode of Voyager.
I'd discount him just because Mark Sheppard's been in everything from X Files to BSG to Sliders and everything inbetween
That wasn't a cameo.
Also, his Voyager appearance was before he had the fame he has today, mostly from all the genre appearances he's made since being on Voyager.I'd discount him just because Mark Sheppard's been in everything from X Files to BSG to Sliders and everything inbetween
And just to make it clear: The Mark Sheppard who played Icheb's father / Romo Lampkin / Canton Everett Delaware III / etc. is NOT the same as Mark Shepherd who played Morn.
The Mark A. Sheppard who played Icheb's father Leucon in "Child's Play" was fully credited and extensive role. Sheppard was a guest star. It wasn't a cameo.
Also Mark Sheppard, as in Icheb's dad, Romo Lampkin and Canton Everett Delaware III is the real life son of W Morgan Sheppard, a frequent Trek guest star who's played Dr. Ira Graves on TNG, the Klingon warden in TUC, the alien Ahab on Voyager and a Vulcan in Trek XI. W Morgan Sheppard even played an older version of Mark Sheppard's Canton Everett Delaware III on Doctor Who.
Side note: I totally believe Canton is a future regeneration of River Song... (Canton = song, Delaware = river, i.e. the Delaware River)
You know whenever you see those posts on Facebook "Ten Things You Never Knew About STAR TREK!!!" and it's filled with things that you already know and have done for years?
This is the opposite. I had no idea there was a family connection between the two. This pleases me. Gold star to you!
