Betty Grable (December 18, 1916 – July 2, 1973) was an American actress who was extremely popular during the 1940s. She was known for her stunning legs.
In a holoprogram created by the Hirogen set in 1944, Tom Paris had the identity of an American soldier named Bobby Davis imposed on him in 2374. When he exited the holodeck and encountered Harry Kim in a corridor of the USS Voyager, he mistook him for a Japanese soldier. However, Harry claimed to be an American civilian. As a test, "Bobby" asked him what part of Betty Grable's body he would be staring at if she walked around the corner. Harry corrected guessed that he would be looking at her legs just in time to prevent himself from being shot. (VOY episode: "The Killing Game")
Alternate timeline[]
In an alternate timeline in which Nazi Germany had conquered much of the eastern United States by 1944, an SS officer told Captain Jonathan Archer that Americans were good at making films with stars such as Grable, Rita Hayworth and Veronica Lake but not at fighting wars. The officer hoped to one day travel to Hollywood and meet Grable. Archer told the officer that he doubted that he was Grable's type. (ENT episode: "Storm Front")
