John Wayne as captain? He'd take the Enterprise right through the Neutral Zone and kick some Romulan ass!

oh man I would love to see them replace some of the Ent-Nil crew members in the brawl scene in "The Trouble with Tribbles" cause that would be an asskicking the likes of that the Klingons have never seen.

Imagine the Worf / Picard argument from First Contact.
Replace Worf with R. Lee Ermey

Picard: You want to blow up the ship and run away you coward!
Ermey: Do you know who you are talking too? I will gouge out your eyes and skull fuck you!!!
Picard: Get off my bridge!
Ermey: I don't think so twinkle toes! *punches Picard in the gut*
*Picard falls to the floor gasping for breath*
Picard: b-b-but.... I.... am.... the... captain....
The Duke: Wrong! you were the captain, I'm in charge here now.
Ermey: Now get out there and don't get assimilated!!! *picks up Picard and kicks him in the ass and knocks Picard into the nearest turbolift.*
*bridge crew looks confused*
Ermey: What are you looking at??? get back to work you scumbags!!!

For some reason I am reminded of an avatar of someone's where it looks like Picard has Tourette's Syndrome... that thought always amuses me :D

It wouldn't be too bad. Ermey would keep the crew in line, but he wouldn't be insubordinate to Wayne. He was in a real military, and understands the concept of "chain of command".

I was wondering....

does anyone thing that John Wayne would wear his phaser way back on his belt practically on his butt like he always did with his pistol? oh and do you think it would have the ivory grip too?

There no way he'd carry a phaser.

Nah, the Duke would be packing either a .44 six-shooter or a Colt .50 Desert Eagle. He's big enough for the Desert Eagle, and I bet one of those would punch nice holes in a Borg. Or pretty much anything else he'd be likely to use a handgun on. Just...don't use it near the outer hull.

It still lacked a trigger guard as I recall

If he had too he would just force them to make a decent one for him :D

Imagine that, Starfleet shown how to make functional phasers :twisted:

The Duke is da man! :D :D

you are probably right. He was a bit confused by and untrusting of an automatic pistol in Big Jake and seemed to be stuck on the idea that all pistols only had six shots max.

I wouldn't put John Wayne on the Enterprise-E, though. Maybe a Defiant, or another strictly-warship; the theoretical version of the Prometheus discussed in another thread with a phaser lance would be just about perfect. Name it after the Colt Peacemaker revolver. The E-E's a great battleship, don't get me wrong, but its primary mission is still exploration. I'm not sure John Wayne would be my first choice of men to seek out new life and new civilizations, either, unless the UFP wanted to scare the hell out of them.

Alien culture: "Unknown starship, you must leave our territory at once or be destroyed!"
John Wayne: "Well now, pilgrim, I don't reckon that's very neighborly of you."
JW's tactical officer: "Captain, three unknown vessels are approaching and powering up their weapons!"
John Wayne: "We'll just see about that. Let's put a phaser lance through that first one just to be getting their attention."

Now the next question, would the Duke still wear a Stetson and maybe spurs with his Starfleet uniform? And how long do you think he could hang onto his starship before Starfleet Command took it away from him for playing too rough?

hell yeah!

Yes, but probably a black one.

I think Starfleet Command would send a Captain to relieve him of command and The Duke would be publicly embarrass the new captain in front of the crew and then the crew and the Duke would laugh him off the ship. Then the Duke would go to Starfleet Command and crack a few skulls and show them that he 'ain't goin' nowhere'.
