USS Nightingale (Hippocrates class)

The USS Nightingale was built along with 19 other Hippocrates class hospital ships. It was staffed mainly by civilian doctors and nurses who volunteered their services during the Dominion War.

The Nightingale served with distinction in the opening months of the Dominion War, under the command of LCDR Blake Marion. The ship was assumed lost with the destruction of the seventh fleet, but managed to survived two weeks behind enemy lines.

It is believed that the USS Nightingale rescued an operative of Section 31 from the planetiod MN-1375. However this report has not yet been able to be confirmed.
