Gina Yashere as Lura Thok on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.

A closeup of Lura Thok's combadge, with the rank pips circled.

I hadn't noticed the rank pips on the #StarfleetAcademy combadges until I was reading up on #LuraThok.

Plus, according to #MemoryAlpha, she served on the #USSNog, which makes her even cooler! 🖖😁
