Lieutenant Branson was a Starfleet officer assigned to the USS Enterprise-E in 2379, on which he served as helm officer.
Branson was on duty when Captain Picard ordered the Enterprise to Romulus in response to an overture of peace from newly-installed Praetor Shinzon. This overture, however, was ultimately revealed to be a ruse by Shinzon, in order to capture Captain Picard and perform a complete blood transfusion from him in order to save his own life. In the subsequent battle in the Bassen Rift, Branson was killed when a torpedo fired from Shinzon's ship, the Scimitar, breached the forward bulkhead of the Enterprise's bridge, the explosive decompression blowing him out into space.
