Billy suffered an injury during the attack by the Xindi near Azati Prime in 2154 which required him to wear a neck brace. It was in this condition that he attended Captain Archer's empassioned speech in honor of the eighteen crewmembers who died in the attack. (ENT: "The Forgotten")
By 2161, Billy had attained the rank of ensign. That year he informed Archer that it was time to give his speech at the Federation Founding Ceremony. (ENT: "These Are the Voyages...")
- Billy, who was first referenced by name in "Unexpected", and was later identified by name in "Oasis," was played by Solomon Burke, Jr..
