Admiral Komack in 2267

Admiral Komack was a Starfleet flag officer, the head of Starfleet Command, Sector 9 in 2267.

Komack was responsible for overseeing the USS Enterprise's mission to Omicron Ceti III on stardate 3417. After he learned of the survival of the colonists, he ordered them evacuated to Starbase 27. (TOS: "This Side of Paradise")

On stardate 3372, Admiral Komack denied the request of the Enterprise to divert to Vulcan but to maintain course for Altair VI. Komack later allowed Enterprise to divert following a request made by Vulcan matriarch T'Pau. (TOS: "Amok Time")

Komack sent orders removing Enterprise from responsibility for the asteroid starship Yonada in 2268 after James Kirk initially proved unable to divert its course from inhabited systems. (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky")

Appearances

Background

Admiral Komack, who was first mentioned as a dialog reference in "The Alternative Factor", was played by Byron Morrow. In "For the World is Hollow...", the script referred to his character as Admiral Westervliet, although when Morrow ended up being cast for the role, the name was not used in dialog, indicating this was intended to be the same character featured in "Amok Time." Admiral Komack was named for James Komack, director of TOS: "A Piece of the Action".

Komack was one of the few admirals seen on the original series. In most other episodes where Kirk reports to a flag officer, it was usually a commodore.
