John Hudson Jr.

John Hudson II was a 24th century human Starfleet officer.

He was the son of legendary Starfleet captain Jack Hudson. Later in life, the two men did not see eye to eye. Jack was content being a captain and never accepted a promotion, John on the other hand actively sought the admiralty. Jack retired shortly before his son would have outranked him.

Dominion War
Hudson was a captain, commanding the Miranda-class USS Oxford, during the early part of the war. The Oxford went through substantial upgrades, under Hudson's watch, to bring it close to par with the newer Defiant-class. Hudson had enormous pride for his ship and crew. Many of his crew mates would join him again in the future.

Hudson and the Oxford were hand picked by Vice Admiral William Ross and Fleet Captain Charles Ramirez for Operation Homecoming. (Star Trek: Thunder)
