A lot of the facebook updates lately have concentrated on what seems to be the next phase of the pre-production: uniforms!

Joseph is helping out Ajax with the uniform accents during some downtime on Star Trek: Excalibur, another Trek Fan-Based webseries. The USS Ajax Insignia being delivered is just out-of-site.
