D Squadron

From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide

D Squadron, also called the "Daggits," are a Viper strike team that attacks Cylon baseships and other military targets in order to distract the Cylons from detecting Viper traffic to and from Earth. D Squadron also participates in the Battle for the Agricultural Ships.

D Squadron, lead by Lieutenant Dante, consists of Viper pilots with a "devil-may-care" attitude. Colonel Boomer holds them in high regard, but an unidentified captain reports an issue with D Squadron's pilots removing limiters from the turbo chargers on their Viper craft (1980: "Space Croppers").

Battle Suits and Helmets

Members of D Squadron are identifiable by their dark bronze helmets, and often wear different styles of outer wear than the typical battle suit jacket, from a black leather-esque jacket to an armor breastplate. Their commander, Dante, wears an ascot in the style of the legendary Commander Cain.
