HMS Unconquered (CL-16) is a light cruiser and the oldest active duty warship in the Royal Manticoran Navy.[1]. Her current commanding officer is RADM Lady Dame Laura Lochen, KCR, MC, DSO, ME, Baroness Boundary Waters.
History
Commissioned in 1649 PD[1], Unconquered was first commanded by Edward Saganami; it was his first hyper-capable command. Unconquered's final commanding officer was Ellen D'Orville, followed by an order to transfer the ship to the reserve fleet for a century. She was scheduled for scrapping after her service, but was saved through a massive fundraising effort of the Royal Navy League to effect a repair and restoration project, preserving the ship back to her Saganami-era state. Once the project was completed, she had remained in a parking orbit above Manticore ever since.[2]
Shipboard Positions
After the Royal Navy League managed to rescue Unconquered from scrapping following reserve duty, it was determined that given the ship's illustrious history, it would be considered a high honor to be assigned as a member of her crew. Crew membership did not require the honoree to physically crew the vessel; it was merely an additional billet afforded to the honoree through the use of an assignment tab placed above the honoree's actual assignment.
TRMN
Within The Royal Manticoran Navy: The Official Honor Harrington Fan Association, Inc., assignment to Unconquered is one of the highest honors for members of the Navy and Marine Corps; crewmembers are considered to exemplify the very best in unswerving duty and service to the entire organization, with demonstrated and conspicuous accomplishment and achievement. Eligibility for consideration remains with members of the Royal Manticoran Navy and the Royal Manticoran Marine Corps.
Crewmember appointments are for life, however, the appointment as Commanding Officer lasts for one year.[3] The transfer of command is typically announced at Honorcon in Autumn. Admiralty Order 1511-04 established the position of a "Permanent Commanding Officer" of Unconquered, above that of the Commanding Officer. The current and first Permanent CO is David Weber.[4]
Nomination
Those holding a billet of ship commanding officer or above may submit worthy nominees are to the Third Space Lord when nominations are solicited (usually mid-July to the end of August). A committee made up of the members of the Bureau of Ships will consider all submitted nominations for intense vetting. Crewmembers are voted upon in-committee, while the Commanding Officer is submitted to the Royal Council for final consideration and selection. Those nominations not selected are traditionally transmitted to the Bureau of Personnel for consideration of a post-nominal award.
