Tam (Crewman)

Mr. Tam was a male human who served on the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) in 2268.

That year, he was working in the transporter room after a transporter accident had killed Captain Gage Darres. When Captain Kirk entered the room to talk to Montgomery Scott about the accident, Tam gave Scotty a sympathetic look. Scotty thought that Tam needed to learn to mind his own business, and after Kirk left, Scotty talked to Tam about "good manners." (Star Trek: Section 31 novel: Cloak)
