Strickler (Admiral)

Strickler was a Starfleet admiral who worked at Starfleet Headquarters on Earth during 2372.

In an alternate universe, Lieutenant Lasca and Ensign Kim were to have a presentation with Admiral Strickler regarding the newly designed Yellowstone-class runabout. Strickler was familiar with the ship's specifications and thought it was an interesting design. However, he was more interested that they address the dilithium fracture problem in the ship's warp drive. His query was cut short when Ensign Kim was unable to make his presentation, subsequently cutting their meeting short. Strickler was unable to reschedule because he was already scheduled to conduct a three-week tour of the Cardassian border a few days later. Following the aborted meeting, Strikler had a meeting with the head of Starfleet Security.

The following day Kim was arrested for accessing classified Starfleet records regarding the USS Voyager. Admiral Strickler presided over the informal inquiry, and later ordered restrictions on Kim's movements. (VOY: "Non Sequitur")

Admiral Strickler was played by Jack Shearer. The character's name is not spoken aloud during the episode, which has caused confusion among some fans due to actor Shearer's subsequent appearances as Admiral Hayes in later episodes.
