The USS Chickamauga (NCC-572) was a Saladin-class destroyer -- of the Cochise-subclass -- in Federation Starfleet service during the 23rd century. (Orion Press: Cochise-class Specifications)

Chickamauga was commanded by Captain Wolf Klawitter when he led a task force to hold the line against vessels of the Barrier Alliance making an incursion into Federation territory. (Starship Deimos: "Where They Have Gone, We Follow")

Ships of the Cochise subclass were in service from 2252 to 2274, and all surviving vessels were refit afterwards, but the year the incident took place was not specified. The Barrier Alliance became part of the Federation in 2285, so the battle must have taken place before then.

Nomenclature[]

The ship was named after the Battle of Chickamauga, fought on 18-20 September, 1863, during the American Civil War.
