The red uniform finally caught up with Janice Rand.
Considering that Grace Lee Whitney was thirty-six when Star Trek began, it's ironic that Vonda McIntyre wrote a novel which claimed that Rand was underage -- in her mid-to-late teens (and lying about it) -- when Kirk took command of the Enterprise.  Retroactive Dawson Casting?

Read that novel.  Never knew Grace's real age.  Interesting...

I was talking to my mom about this earlier today on the phone. I had the interesting idea that someone should do a short fic about Yeoman Rand as a tribute - basically a sort of report about her later exploits in Star Fleet and such.

Please, gentlemen. Let's have respect for the lady as is her due. When we last saw her, she was Lieutenant Rand.
