By 2381, he had attained the rank of Lieutenant aboard the Enterprise. During the Borg Invasion of 2381, the USS Aventine and the Enterprise traveled through a subspace tunnel from the Azure Nebula, hoping to find the staging area of the Borg, but ended up near the Carina Arm near the border of the Delta and Gamma Quadrants. A fleet of Hirogen vessels attacked and boarded the two vessels, and de Lange was part of Randolph Giudice's security team to defend the vessel, all armed with TR-116 rifles. As the Hirogen hunters approached, their energy dampeners knocked out the lighting, and de Lange and Manfred Vogel were impaled with starburst-shaped throwing blades, dead before their bodies struck the deck.
