Greg Horst

Gregory Nathan Horst was a Captain and the past commander of the USS. He was killed during a Borg attack by his First Officer.

U.S.S. Martha (NCC-93242)
The U.S.S. Martha was launched on July 4, 2399 under the command of Captain Horst.

Grave Discovery
In 2409, Captain Horst was engaged by multiple Borg cubes, and asked to surrender himself and his ship. He managed to beam a bomb to their main cube, and destroyed it, leaving room for the Martha to escape. During their escape, Captain Horst discovered that his First Officer helped alert the Borg, and approached him.

His First Officer had wanted to be assimilated to feel at one with his allies.

Death
The First Officer, Commander Robert Boothe expected this discovery, and fired a phaser into Captain Horst's chest, mortally wounding him. Horst managed to impale Robert in the neck with his lucky knife, killing him while being wounded. Captain Horst attempted to crawl to the bridge, but couldn't make it.

In his Captain's cabin, Horst recorded his final Captain's Log, recommending that the next command be granted to his friend, Jason T. Krex. A few moments after finishing the log, Captain Gregory Horst died after 10 years of command.

Legacy
Soon after, Lieutenant Jason T. Krex was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander after arriving at Earth Spacedock, and given command of the Martha, a ship he had read about and loved.
