You may also be looking for Ensign Bennet.

Ensign Bennett was a 24th century Starfleet helmsman aboard the USS Enterprise-D.

Service history

2364

Bennett took over for Data at ops in early 2364 when the Enterprise encountered Q for the first time and a saucer separation was performed. (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint")

A little later, Bennett was affected by the polywater intoxication and was on duty on the bridge when Doctor Beverly Crusher finally administered the antidote. When the senior staff returned to duty, Bennett was working at the science station next to Data. Judging by how he reacted, its possible he overheard Natasha Yar make a comment about a personal situation between herself and Data. (TNG: "The Naked Now")

He was working on the bridge, working at an aft console, when security chief Tasha Yar was abducted by the Ligonian leader Lutan. (TNG: "Code of Honor")

He was manning a bridge station when the ship was in orbit of Delphi Ardu IV and fell asleep over his console when the life support lost its energy. (TNG: "The Last Outpost")

Bennett was working on the bridge when Kosinski and The Traveler conducted tests on the warp drive of the Enterprise. (TNG: "Where No One Has Gone Before")

He was on duty on the bridge when the ship encountered the Beta Renner cloud. He later took part in a briefing in the observation lounge. (TNG: "Lonely Among Us")

He manned the ops when the ship was in orbit of Rubicun III and an aft station when the crew made contact with the Edo God. (TNG: "Justice")

He was also working on the bridge when Captain Picard, under the influence of a Ferengi thought maker, prepared to attack the Enterprise-D from aboard the USS Stargazer. (TNG: "The Battle")

Bennett was hurrying through a corridor when the ship was approaching Quadra Sigma III. (TNG: "Hide and Q")

He was standing guard outside the room where the banquet honoring Deanna Troi's and Wyatt Miller's wedding was held. (TNG: "Haven")

Bennett passed Wesley Crusher and the away team which beamed to the surface of Angel I in front of the transporter room. (TNG: "Angel One")

He was beamed to Starbase 74, together with Wesley Crusher, when the ship had to be evacuated due to tampering by the Bynars. (TNG: "11001001")

He walked through a corridor shortly after Harry Bernard bumped into Commander William T. Riker and again later, when several abducted children were rescued from the Aldeans. (TNG: "When The Bough Breaks")

Bennett was on duty on the bridge when the ship went into orbit of Velara III and guarded Kurt Mandl when he was aboard the ship. (TNG: "Home Soil")

He was also on duty on the bridge when the ship was in orbit of Relva VII, (TNG: "Coming of Age") shortly after rescuing three Klingon from the Talarian freighter Batris, (TNG: "Heart of Glory") and when the Enterprise was conducting studies of Delos. (TNG: "Symbiosis")

Bennett was working on the bridge shortly after the ship received a distress signal from Ben Prieto and Deanna Troi who were crash-landed with a shuttlecraft on Vagra II and paused for a moment, when he heard Armus speak. (TNG: "Skin of Evil")

He was also working on the bridge when the ship experienced a time loop, caused by experiments by Doctor Paul Manheim and filling in for Data when the android went to sickbay to check on Manheim. (TNG: "We'll Always Have Paris")

Bennett was also working on the bridge late that year, when the Enterprise returned to Earth to investigate hints of a conspiracy within Starfleet (TNG: "Conspiracy") and when the ship discovered a cryonic satellite from the late 20th century and shortly thereafter encountered the Romulans. (TNG: "The Neutral Zone")

2365

Bennett, 2365
