'''Bojay''' used to be attached as a [[Viper (TOS)|Viper]] pilot aboard ''[[Galactica (TOS)|Galactica]]'' before being transferred to the [[Pegasus (TOS)|Pegasus]] and the [[Fifth Fleet]] two [[yahren]] prior to the [[Battle of Cimtar |Cylon-initiated holocaust]]. | |||
Bojay | |||
Bojay, as well as the rest of the ''Pegasus'' crew, were presumed dead at the [[Battle of Molecay]], due to [[Cain (TOS)|Commander Cain's]] insistence that they take an indirect route to the [[Twelve Colonies (TOS)|Colonies]]. | |||

Bojay and Lieutenant [[Sheba (TOS)|Sheba]] intercept ''Galactica'' Viper pilots [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]] and [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]] while they are on a routine recon mission, subsequently escorting them back to ''Pegasus''. | |||

After thwarting [[Baltar (TOS)|Baltar]]'s devestating attack on the Fleet, plans are drafted to take the Cylon fuel stores on [[Gamoray (TOS)|Gamoray]]. | ||

Since Stauffer and [[Richard Hatch]] (Apollo) worked so well together, [[Glen A. Larson|Larson]] and his peers elected to keep the character of Bojay on. Although the last time Bojay was seen was in [[War of the Gods]] -- where he disappeared in the first act after encountering the [[Ship of Lights|Beings' colossus]] -- Stauffer would have had a strong recurring part like those of [[Herb Jefferson Jr.]], Laurette Spang-McCook, or [[Anne Lockhart]], had there been a second season. | ||
