#R:hao:-79200:uicsl:11600010:000:325 uicsl!twt Jan 20 20:13:00 1984 Yes, but Scotty was a REGULAR, so he couldn't have died. Also, in (I believe) THE DEADLY YEARS, where all the officers started aging fast, some women in the landing party died, and she was wearing a BLUE shirt. Maybe Rodenberry was anti-communist and was trying to make the statement "Better dead than red" (:>) Mary

I know of at least one exception: Scotty! He wears a red uniform,
was involved with several landing parties, and never got killed
(except once, when "Nomad" patched him together after blowing him away).
