BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES[]

Personal History[]

Before his assignment to the U.S.S. Resolute, Brian Donaldson's career was largely undistinguished. Applied for early enrollment to Starfleet Academy in 2382, during the rush for officers due to the state of disintegrating Federation/Klingon/Romulan relations. It was here that he began his friendship with Klingon Captain Braxus, Son of Ba’ruk, that friendship would last until the Battle of Pentath in 2406. Captain Braxus was an instructor at the Academy and head of the schools Klingon Combat Team. Graduating 31st in his class, his first assignment was as Helmsman on U.S.S. Philadelphia under Capt. Selek.

Promoted to Lieutenant 2 years later for satisfactory service and time served. Following this, Donaldson applied to switch from operations to security division. Donaldson attended the Starfleet Special Forces School at Fort Brag. Due to exceptional scores in marksmanship and ground tactics, he was recruited by U.S.S. Resolute's Security Chief, LT Cmdr. Anthony Portolano. Following the transfer Donaldson was assigned to the ship’s famous Security Team Alpha.

In 2393, the Resolute was sent to mediate the devastating political uprising on Andoria. Several of the Resolute's crewman were taken hostage along with 22 Federation civilians during the Peace Talks. After 6 civilians and LT Cmdr. Portolano were executed, Capt. Sean Anderson authorized Donaldson's rescue plan. After the Successful rescue of the hostages, including First Officer Chelik, Donaldson was decorated with the Star Cross, and promoted to Lieutenant Commander.

It was 6 years later, in 2399 that Donaldson was named First Officer of the U.S.S. Lexington by Capt. Ahmed ibn al-Abbas. 7 years after taking the assignment, the Lexington was sent to the Pentath System along with eight other ships from the 4th Fleet. Starfleet Intelligence received reports that the Klingons were preparing for an Invasion of the much disputed Cardassian System. Donaldson contacted his long time friend in the KDF, Capt. Braxus to see if the rumors were true. His communications went unanswered until two days later when the Klingon Fleet, twelve ships led by Capt. Braxus, warped in system. Dispite facing overwhelming odds, the Starfleet task force successfully repelled the Klingons at Pentath. Donaldson fired the fatal torpedo that destroyed Braxus's ship. Most other systems in the Archanis Sector didn't fare as well. The Klingon/Federation War had begun.

For his exception service during the Battle of Pentath, Donaldson was awarded the Grankite Order of Tactics and Starfleet Command offered the command of the new Luna-Class U.S.S. Independence to Cmdr. Donaldson. Promoted to Captain, he was posted to Fleet Daedalus Omega, Sol System.

In late May 2410, the Independence was sent as head of a fleet taskforce to the planet Alpha Zero Zero Six. There they encountered an as of yet unknown culture and was attacked defending the Starfleet facility there. The Independence suffered severe damage and was forced to be mothballed and Donaldson was awarded the Medal of Valor for his service. Since that fight, Donaldson has had an unquenchable vendetta against the culture known as Raiders, pushing himself and his ship into the forefront of any mission pertaining to them. 

Having proven himself a capable leader, Donaldson was promoted to Rear Admiral, and assigned to Command the 22nd Mobile.  During Donaldson's tenure as Fleet Commander, the 22nd Mobile was instrumental in several major engagements, including the rescue of Deep Space 9 from the 2800, the Klingon Civil War, and more recently the stabilization of relations with the Romulan Republic.  Howver, in 2417, Admiral Donaldson was asked to take on the position of Chief of Starfleet Security.
