Took over STARFLEET after the resignation of John Wetsch in 1983. He had become the Chief of Personnel under John Wetsch after Wetsch relieved Brandt Heatherington due to some sort of non-communication issues. He then became embroiled in a very public "tug-of-war" which would lead to his developing the "Mandate for Change". Once Commander, STARFLEET, then called "Chief of Staff, Starfleet Command", he set up changing the structure, including finalization of the name to STARFLEET, as well as changing the official title of the president of STARFLEET from "Chief of Staff" to "Commanding Admiral" in which later would changer to "Commander". Stillwell won initial IRS recognition of STARFLEET as a non-profit entity, negotiated with Paramount Pictures on the "Copyright Violation" and convinced the leadership of the STAR TREK Welcommittee in taking STARFLEET off their "Blacklist". After defections and problems with members of his own Admiralty Board, Stillwell resigned as Commander, STARFLEET. He later became a Production Assistant on the STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION series, as well as a co-writer of the popular episode "Yesterday's Enterprise" and at least one episode of Star Trek:Voyager.
