Admiral Taylor was a Starfleet flag officer in the 24th century. In 2369, Geordi La Forge, when investigating the murder of Lieutenant Keith Rocha, requested a display of the personal records of the lieutenant from the Relay Station 47 computer for stardates 46455 to 46460. One of these records mentioned this individual. This character was only mentioned in writing. For the remastered episode, the log entry stardate was changed from 46457 to 45457. The log entry, with the admiral's name, was new to the episode, having replaced the pre-remastered entry.
