History[]
In 2270, after the Nautilus disabled ship's power, Yeoman Wheeler lent a titanium-finished hairpin to Kirk so he could try to pick a magnetic lock. Kirk sent her, Oba, Gilden, Butterfield and Paxson to the main computer core to assess the ship's condition and aid personnel there. Later, Wheeler and Gilden joined Kirk to get into the emergency bridge, and also brought back some rope and several engineers.
Memories of these events were removed from the crew's minds, so Wheeler would not recall the incidents. (TOS novel: Crossroad)
