Michael Parsons

Ensign Michael Parsons was a 24th century Starfleet officer serving under Captain Kathryn Janeway aboard the USS Voyager. In 2371, Parsons was among the crew stranded in the Delta Quadrant when Voyager was forcefully brought there by the Caretaker.

Parsons, who was assigned to the command division, was involuntarily asked to keep an eye on the mess hall and galley by Neelix when he had to go to the bridge. 

Neelix believed that Parsons was possessed by the Komar. The Talaxian's reasoning was that Parsons liked his pejuta hot and with lemon, and that his recent order was for cold Pejuta without lemon, therefore he might not be the same person. 

While The Doctor was delusional, later that year, he imagined that he and Reginald Barclay were going to disable the holoemitters in engineering and that Janeway ordered Jarvis and Parsons, who was then assigned to the operations division, to stop them. 

Parsons' name was read aloud by Harry Kim, in early 2372, when Kim reviewed Voyager's crew roster. 

In 2373, Parsons suffered from a microbial infection. The Doctor set up a culture of his glial cells to do an immunogenicity analysis, but was too distracted with his holographic family, so Kes did the tests instead. 

In 2374, Parsons received a letter from home, handed out by Neelix in the mess hall, that had been transmitted from the Alpha Quadrant over the Hirogen communications network.
