I honestly thought he was an admiral by the time of Picard. But even with that in mind, it's interesting that he never made it to admiral.
We don't know what the wall is for, it could just be showing the rank/position they were when they were added.
Let's hope.
He was retired in PIC1 Returned to active duty in PIC3.
Tried to introduce new talking point before going to sleep.
Wake up… back to the list of names and ranks…
*cries myself back to sleep*

Let's double-down on the wall so that Richard gets plenty of rest!
I'm kind of looking forward to finding out what the wall is actually listing so that we may be precise in our criticisms of any errors.
Although if that turns out to be the case, one wonders what some of them are on the wall for exactly.

ok but the trailer does not point it out anywhere so its confusing. and why they are keeping with the hologram characters. i mean ever since that episode in ds9 when odo argued that being hologram does not mean you are not real and the people of that vilage knew they are holograms and still dident care. then the professor in voyager who is also here. its just a weird take all together.
well what i've read is that hes diffucilt to work with (or at least was) and was arguing with the stuff alot. of course i cant say its a legitimate evidence to anything. there are things which are more personal and google will not always give the answer to. but if an actor stopped getting roles all together there must be a reason. his last role was in 2001.
Well, he did resign his commission after his son died.
Because it’s the future?
right, but it becomes complicated when you really dig into this logic. like how a character who is a hologram is self aware that he is a hologram. which yeah there was that argument in ds9 by odo (great episode, i liked it) that even being a hologram you are still sentient. but if she is a hologram then shes created by someone, and that someone clearly have no regards for her. and if she is a hologram. supposedly a "physical" hologram. that still a problem. no matter how sentient she is and how physical she is. she isnt real.
She's as real as Data and The Doctor are.
This show is set 800 years after Voyager, lots of things can change in that amount of time.
Holograms as people is not a new concept in Star Trek, with Voyager being the most prolific in examples of different characters, to some degree or another.
Where did you hear that?
Sam is a Kasqian, who are a sentient photonic species, hardly a first for Star Trek ("The Lights of Zetar" and the aliens from "Bride of Chaotica", to name a few). She is the first member of her species to attend the Academy. Not a holographic computer program that gained sentience, a legitimate sentient being.

I had an interesting conversation in another thread which brought me peace with it - how many background graphics have we just simply ignored? If I can disregard nonsenical things like in jokes what makes this any different?
Of course eventually someone will find the font and then we can just make our own wall with tongo and Risians.
Most of the time those aren't legible or at least were never intended to be, at least pre-HD versions.
This wall was clearly meant to be read.
And yet memory alpha considers it all gospel
