A Klingon death

StarTrek.com is saddened to report the passing of Victor Lundin, a character actor with a unique place in Star Trek history. Lundin, who passed away on June 29 at the age of 83, portrayed the very first Klingon on Star Trek: The Original Series. Most fans assume that Jon Colicos as Kor had that distinction in the episode "Errand of Mercy." However, Lundin's Klingon Lieutenant actually appeared on screen a few moments before Colicos' Kor.
