Ekosian corporal

An Ekosian corporal (Gefreiter or SS Sturmmann – "storm trooper") bumped into a disguised Kirk in the hall. Kirk pick-pocketed the corporal's keys. When the man returned, Isak knocked him unconscious and Spock took the uniform. (TOS: "Patterns of Force")

Played by an unknown actor.

Daras' father

This man was seemingly betrayed by his daughter to the Ekosian Party. In reality, after becoming disillusioned with the Party's ideals, he turned against them and encouraged Daras to denounce him publicly so she could get closer to the Führer. He was sentenced to death for his actions. (TOS: "Patterns of Force")

He was never seen, only mentioned by Daras. It is unknown whether his death sentence was successfully implemented.

Major

Ekosian SS major

Ekosian major

The Ekosian major was a mid-ranking security officer who was a member of the SS on the planet Ekos in 2268. The major was assigned duties at Fuhrer headquarters and was responsible for arresting James T. Kirk and Spock when they attempted to gain entry to Nazi HQ in an effort to find John Gill. The major exposed the two by ordering Spock to remove the helmet of his captured SS uniform, thereby revealing Spock's Vulcan ears.

The major later interrogated Spock and Kirk in the Chancellery Detention Center, having them beaten and then prepared to have them executed. He was prevented from carrying out the execution by Eneg, who ordered Spock and Kirk held for one hour awaiting further questioning. During that hour, Kirk and Spock escaped. (TOS: "Patterns of Force")

The officer, played by Gilbert Green, was billed in the credits as the "SS Major," (as Spock and Melakon both referred to him) but this rank is inconsistent (based on the system used on Earth) with his uniform insignia, a single oak leaf which would have signified a World War II-era German colonel (referred to as Oberst for an army officer or Standartenführer for an SS officer). It is also unknown how Kirk would have had such knowledge on Ekos SS ranks, since Kirk addresses the officer as major before the rank is stated by anyone else. This officer seems to be wearing his insignia incorrectly; an SS Standartenführer or colonel would have both collar patches a single oak leaf, but he is wearing his right one with standard SS bolts for ranks below a colonel, and the left one a colonel's oak leaf.
