Kenneth Tobey

In 1978, he appeared as Captain Gordon Trigg, captain of the Washington State ferry MV Klickitat, in NBC's two-hour Emergency! episode "The Most Deadly Passage".

That role led to other science fiction film roles in the 1950s, usually cast in the role of a military man, particularly The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms (1953), and It Came from Beneath the Sea (1956).

After Bowie's death at the Battle of the Alamo, Tobey played a second character, Jocko, in the two final Crockett episodes.
