History[]
In 2268, Smith and fellow security officer Rusch fired phasers at a Stella Mudd android to deactivate it, then beamed back to the Enterprise. They were known to Ensign Leslie Lebrun, who saw the incident from a distance. (TOS novel: Mudd in Your Eye)
In 2274, Captain James T. Kirk requested a security detail beam down to Sarsithia when Isoth Fortress was breached by a force of scavengers. Sergeant Umeki and guards Smith, Gomez, and Takashida were on duty in the security stand-by lounge, and they transported down with Security Chief Pavel Chekov to defend the citadel. When the intruders spotted General Onoth in the fortress, however, they panicked, and he shot them before they could surrender.
Later, chemical interactions gave Christine Chapel amnesia and drove her into a frenzied panic. She unexpectedly punched Kirk and laid out one of the three guards, then scattered them with a phaser blast. The team tracked her to a spaceport, but she escaped in a transport before they could apprehend her. (TOS comic: "Quarantine")
- Smith was not specifically identifiable among the guards in the comic. In Mudd in Your Eye, Smith and Rusch were named for authors Dean Wesley Smith and Kristine Kathryn Rusch.
