Starfleet Academy[]

USS Exeter[]
She was later assigned to the USS Exeter as captain's personal assistant, much to Captain Garrovick's annoyance.
- The dialog does not use the term "yeoman". (Generally, a yeoman is a job for an NCO, not a commissioned officer.)
On her first day on the job, the Exeter was on a mission to destroy a Tholian device that would annihilate a section of Tressaurian space. When a Tressaurian prisoner killed the transporter crew, Richards took their place. She died when the feedback from transporting the Tholian device destroyed the Transporter Room. (EXT: "The Tressaurian Intersection")
Background[]
Vandi Richards was played by Elizabeth Wheat.
