When the Captain made his announcement, Cindy said to Carley, "Please excuse me for a moment. I'll be right back."
Cindy waited until Cologero was walking back to his seat, where his date awaited him. She then intercepted him, stepping directly in front of him and offering a polite smile. "Let me congratulate you, Lieutenant Coppola. We look forward to seeing more great things from you in the future."
Cindy then reached forward and shook his hand, but when she did so, she did more than just shake his hand. In the hand shake, she had palmed a challenge coin. After shaking his hand, she then quickly returned to Carley's side, not lingering to answer any questions. While walking away, he would catch a glimpse of a tattoo, but he was unfamiliar with it. It Had angel wings and the word "Valkyrie". but he couldn't make out the rest.
When Cologero looked at the coin, it had on one side, the standard symbol for Star Fleet Search and Rescue, on the other was a version of an old emblem with the wings of an angel and a parachute with the words around it that said, "That Others May Live." A quick search of archives would reveal that it was the motto of an ancient organization formed from a military unit that dropped behind enemy lines to rescue downed pilots. That quote looked like the words he had not been able to quite make out on her tattoo.
When Cindy came back to Carley, she gave a nod toward Cologero and said, "He shows promise. He still has much to learn, but I like the cut of his jib."
