Scrub Up
Even the Sickbay staff would get an upgrade in Wrath of Khan. Like the Crewman Jumpsuits, the sickbay uniforms would be overhauled versions of uniforms from the Motion Picture. This upgrade might have been one of the simplest of all, however. They just added a moss-green turtleneck and the department-colored wrist band and – viola – a new uniform!
Dr. McCoy's whites as seen in the Motion Picture were right out of the seventies with a definitel "leasure suit" look complete with open collar and bare neck. By adding the WOK turtleneck, the uniform was instantly updated for the 24th century. Add the wrist band and the dimensional caduceus and the transformation to Wrath of Khan style was complete. The nurses received the same update and could be seen in various scenes throughout Wrath of Khan. And it was all achieved on a shoestring budget.
