Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is famous for its large cast of compelling characters from all different walks of life who have different relationships to the United Federation of Planets. Nowhere in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine‘s cast, however, are any prominent Bolians. Still, without the heroic actions of the Bolian Lieutenant (Stephen Davies) aboard the USS Saratoga, Deep Space Nine could not have existed. Although he never even gets a name, the Bolian Lieutenant is the unsung hero of Deep Space Nine‘s opening scene.
