Khran's tour of duty on board the Rettinger was started off uneventful. However, excitment came when he asked the Tac/Sec of the Rettinger if he could demonstrate his new tactical abilities (learned from simulations) and possibly be promoted to ATac/ASec. The Tac/Sec brushed him off and ignored him.

Khran's fellow crewmates in the Security Department encouraged him to go to the Rettinger's first officer, mayber to her captain and ask again, but Khran choose not to. He respected the chain of command and chose not to go over the Tac/Sec's head. Khran was promoted to Ensign (SG) during his time on the Rettinger.

Khran got his moment to shine later when the USS Rettinger was attacked by a band of criminals who had the goal of kidnapping the Federation Ambassador to [[Angel One]]. The USS Rettinger was disabled and the ship was boarded. Khran lead a group of junior officers and retook several important crew areas, including Main Engineering and Ten Forward (important because of the large amount of captured crewmembers there). However, Khran wasn't promoted or awarded a medal for his actions. Khran however, didn't complain and kept his respect, and refused to tell the FO about his complishments during the hostile takeover.

Finally, when Khran's friends in the Security Divison went to the first officer with good reports of Khran's actions, the Tac/Sec put in a request directly to the CO for his transfer, and it was granted. Khran was transferred off the Rettinger.
