Task Force 71 was a Starfleet task force extant in the late 24th century. It was part of the Starfleet Seventh Fleet. In 2377-78, Fleet Admiral Lamia Jedrek was Task Force 71's commanding officer aboard the flagship USS Sovereign (a Sovereign-class heavy cruiser commanded by Captain Washington). Task Force 71, deployed to the Romulan Neutral Zone, was then homeported at Starbase 10. (Ships of the Star Fleet, Vol. 4: Star Fleet Operating Forces. )
