Read more about Yeoman Rand at: Wikipedia Official Site: Paramount Yeoman Janice Rand, played by Grace Lee Whitney, is a character in Star Trek: The Original Series. She subsequently appears in several Star Trek films and in an episode of Star Trek: Voyager. Rand serves as yeoman to Captain James T. Kirk aboard the USS Enterprise in the first half of the first season of The Original Series. A mutual attraction is suggested between her and Captain Kirk in episodes such as "The Naked Time", "The Enemy Within", and "Miri". The most noticeable confession of their "feelings they've been hiding" was in "The Enemy Within" while Kirk, Spock, and McCoy ask her about her attack. Rand disappeared halfway into the first season, appearing in eight episodes altogether. She next appeared in the 1979 film Star Trek: The Motion Picture as a transporter operator and non-commissioned officer. Her next appearance was in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home where she has been promoted to Chief Petty Officer and was stationed in San Francisco along with Christine Chapel. She served as the communications officer aboard the USS Excelsior in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and in the Voyager episode "Flashback". Whitney had a cameo in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock and was identified by fans as portraying Janice Rand, although the credits listed her as a red-haired "woman in cafeteria". Whitney, in her autobiography, maintained that she was not playing Rand in that movie.
Yeoman Rand has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
