Florence Nightingale
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference
- For other meanings of "Nightingale", please see Nightingale (disambiguation).
Florence Nightingale was a Human woman, who was primarily known for treating wounded soldiers on Earth's ancient battlefields.
In 2377, Harry Kim renamed the Kraylor Medical Transport 136 after Nightingale, since he believed at the time that it was carrying vital vaccines to the Kraylor homeworld. It later turned out this ship wasn't on a medical mission at all however, making it somewhat of a misnomer. (VOY: "Nightingale")
