[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] Yeah, there didn't seem to be a tactical or security station on the Enterprise's bridge at all in TOS. Sulu and Chekov (or navihelm person of the week) fired the weapons. In "Mirror, Mirror," one of Sulu's consoles is referred to as a security board. Of course, there are two or three stations on the bridge that we don't know what purpose they served. But weapons control didn't seem to be any of their functions. We didn't actually get a real tactical station on the Enterprise's bridge until she was refit in The Motion Picture. But in The Final Frontier, the station seemed to get demoted to just a set of wall monitors next to the Master Situation station behind Kirk's chair. Then that was broken in two and flanked the Master Situation station in The Undiscovered Control. In both of those movies, they weren't manned (hell, didn't even look like they could accommodate anything more than quick checks). Add to that, in TOS, it doesn't seem like chief of security was a bridge-level or senior staff-level position at all. But I guess that could be all right since the chief engineer wasn't a bridge-level or senior-staff level position in the first season of The Next Generation. [/QB][/QUOTE]
