Ian suggested that in addition to the "Worst command decisions" polls, we could also have a "Best command decisions" poll. So here it is.

I wanna say what he did in 'The Enterprise Incident', which resulted in the capture of a working cloaking device and the Romulan COmmander as a prisoner, but I'm not sure how to phrase it. :(

Perhaps: "What he did in 'The Enterprise Incident' which resulted in the capture of a working cloaking device and the Romulan Commander as a prisoner."

Yep. Kirk blew up Enterprise to keep the Klingons from having her.

Picard left Stargazer just float right into Ferengi hands.
