Tyree

Tyree

Tyree was a humanoid native of Neural, and the leader of a tribe of Hill People.

In 2255, Lieutenant James T. Kirk led his first planet survey mission to Neural, and became a good friend of Tyree. Kirk returned to the planet in 2268 as Captain of USS Enterprise, and found Tyree had risen to become leader of the Hill People -- married to a Kahn-ut-tu witch-woman named Nona.

Tyree saw his way of life abrubtly change after Klingon agents began supplying firearms to Neural's Village-dwellers. Kirk, hoping to even the odds and give the Hill People a fighting chance, supplied Tyree's men with comparable weapons. (TOS: "A Private Little War")

Tyree was played by Michael Whitney.
