As an UNTIL Agent, he uses the standard UNTIL equipment. Brandon Winters preferred weapon of choice is the U-KTF "Katie" Blaster Assault Rifle. Like other agents, he uses the standard sidearm, the U-SHL "Shellie" Blaster Pistol. Tucked in his harness, he carries a UB-1 Battle Knife. In a combat situation the combat knife is Winters' last resort, no matter how big or how small the opponent is. The agent can almost always be seen in his U-AS Basic Combat Uniform.

Service Record
Sierra-Kilo
An UNTIL squad consisting of Sergeant Winters, Corporal Jack "Hound" Bridges, Private Scorcher, Private Jericho, and Private Gage. They were assigned two special Operators to their missions: Matthews and Smith. They were laid back and chill, constantly telling Winters to settle down as a VIPER Hovertank chased him down.UNITED
In February of 2011, The idealistic Colonel Nathan Hayes was given permission by High Command to create a branch of experienced UNTIL Agents from different fields. It was UNITED (The United Nations' Infiltration, Tactics, and Enforcement Detachment). From early on, it was joked that UNITED was to be the UNITY for the Average Joe. Colonel Hayes had contacted a few of his most-wanted agents to meet him at UNTIL's Millennium City Headquarters to register their transfers into the database. Among those agents were Brandon Winters and Hound from Sierra-Kilo. The other three agents were nicknamed Laughter, Dead Eye, and Ranger Prime. An agent in UNITED was to be better than the average soldier. They were outfitted with various gadgets; their physical performance was rigorously tested. Elite men and women were not the only ones recruited. Superheroes, too, such as Gravitas and Ramiel Alexander were added onto the roster. In Colonel Hayes' eyes, UNITED had to be the best-of-the-best in order to match against more than just one Super-powered villain. The new division was to be perfect, able to deal with every international threat more efficiently than any other team UNTIL had seen before.
Colonel Hayes oversaw the entire division. He promoted Brandon Winters from Sergeant to Lieutenant and put him in charge of the field team. Hound continued to be Winters' right-hand man.
The division's very first combat experience had been declared a disaster. It was only a week after UNITED officially began working when the heart Millennium City had been attacked by paramilitary terrorists called the Red Legion. UNITED was the first to detect them, and once they quickly discovered just how dangerous the threat was, they called the local Superheroes for help. The Red Legion troops were heavily armed to take down Super-powered individuals. Winters led his team throughout the Downtown area. Him and his team, along with many superheroes, fought the insurgents from rooftop-to-rooftop and from street-to-street. The heroes were able to fend off the Red Legion but at a heavy price. The damage toll in downtown was high. Everyone wanted to know where this new villain group came from and how they were able to bypass security. Most importantly to UNTIL, it was a mark of a failure for UNITED: The branch of UNTIL that was carefully designed to keep threats contained with low death counts.
Because of the result of the Red Legion attack, the leaders of UNTIL had wanted to drop the project. Colonel Hayes fought hard to keep his division going, promising that UNITED would do better next Operation. Colonel Hayes bumped up the recruitment effort and stressed Winters to get the recruits ready for anything. The next big thing that Millennium City had to face was not the Red Legion, but the Bloodmoon of February 25th, 2011. Unfortunately, UNITED was only able to stay on the grid for two more months. Due to budget constraints from UNTIL, the branch was disbanded. This left all the men and women of UNITED to go their separate ways. Brandon Winters was once again assigned a desk job to help monitor the Respond and Protect channels.
Associates
Sierra-Kilo: Leading the team of five agents was his first big assignment after a year of service in UNTIL. Winters' squad was seen as reckless in the eyes of their Top Brass. They were an odd bunch of men that swore unwavering loyalty to their mission and to each other.

Tropes
Badass Beard - His goatee.
Ensign Newbie - After a year of working with UNTIL, he was assigned with the weirdest group of underdogs to take their previous sergeant's place. This trope was played straight up until the resurrection of Sierra-Kilo, when Winters became more of a Sergeant Rock instead.
Insert Grenade Here - This has happened to him far too many times in Sierra-Kilo.
The Squad - Sierra-Kilo. Brandon Winters was The Leader, Hound was The Big Guy, Scorcher was the Demolitions Expert, Jericho, the Cold Sniper, and lastly, Private Gage played the New Meat.
