copied without permission, of course...

according to the 1973 copy of the blueprints that I have the ship's
complement is as follows:

                                  SHIP'S COMPLEMENT

                               total 136

                               total 239

standard 43 officers & 387 crew.........430

In every case minimum grades are shown for each billet. Individual ships 
may vary by reason of individual modification.

And there you have it, according to the blueprints put out by Paramount
in 1973.

ooo

I'm a little surprise that there are 93 engineering specialists
and only 74 science technicians.  Isn't the mission of the enterprise
such as to require significant numbers of scientists?? and only 4
lead scienctists (I forget what they were labeled) ?

Am I the only one who thinks this is strange?

'Tappears that the entire crew of the starship is commissioned officers
- minimum rank of ensign. Where are the enlistees?

[Mayhaps ye need refreshing from "Mirror, Mirror": one of Chekov's
conspirators who later saved Kirk's life said,
	"Chekov said he would make me a chief; I figured you [Kirk]
	could make me an officer."
and a chief is NOT a commissioned officer!]
