Question...

Was there also a reference to Saul Tigh being a vet of the Cylon Wars as well? His references to not hearing certain commands, such as the one where a Cylon nuke was incoming (Mini-Series), and his reaction to the events of "33" making him "feel alive", make it seem like he was involved in the wars.

Or maybe I'm just imagining things...?

I also seem to recall a reference to Tigh being a veteran also, but I can't remember where. His age also doesn't seem to hold up; the war ended 40 years prior to the miniseries, but Tigh's only listed as 50 or so years old. Kuralyov 22:05, 8 Feb 2005 (EST)
