|
| Greenbean is a member of the Colonial fleet's pilot corps, participating in combat missions alongside other veteran pilots such as [[Apollo (TOS alternate)|Apollo]], [[Starbuck (TOS alternate)|Starbuck]], [[Boomer (TOS alternate)|Boomer]], and [[Jolly (TOS alternate)|Jolly]].

| | |
| During a [[Cylons (TOS alternate)|Cylon]] diversionary attack designed to lure Colonial forces away from the fleet, Greenbean serves as part of the squadron responding to a false distress signal from an uninhabited planet. When the squadron encounters a large Cylon force approaching the ''Galactica'', Greenbean is the first to identify the enemy vessels, responding to Captain Apollo's request for identification in his characteristic "soft folksy voice" with: "Fellas, looks like good old Cylon [[Raider (TOS)|Raiders]] to me. A whole wall of the little buggers."<ref>{{cite book|last=Larson|first=Glen A.|coauthors=[[Robert Thurston|Thurston, Robert]]|title=Surrender the Galactica!|series=Battlestar Galactica|number=14|publisher=Ace Books|year=1988|pages=80|isbn=0-441-05104-9}}</ref>

| | |
| Later, during the climactic battle when ''Galactica'' comes under massive Cylon assault, Greenbean demonstrates his piloting skills in combat. [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]], observing the battle from the experimental [[SuperViper]], notes Greenbean's performance alongside other pilots: "Did you see Jolly zip through that trio? It looked like he knocked them off with one blow. And Boomer and [[Giles (alternate)|Giles]] and Greenbean, too."<ref>{{cite book|last=Larson|first=Glen A.|coauthors=[[Robert Thurston|Thurston, Robert]]|title=Surrender the Galactica!|series=Battlestar Galactica|number=14|publisher=Ace Books|year=1988|pages=175|isbn=0-441-05104-9}}</ref>

| === Personality ===
| |
| | |
| Greenbean is characterized by his distinctive speaking pattern, described as having a "soft folksy voice."<ref>{{cite book|last=Larson|first=Glen A.|coauthors=[[Robert Thurston|Thurston, Robert]]|title=Surrender the Galactica!|series=Battlestar Galactica|number=14|publisher=Ace Books|year=1988|pages=80|isbn=0-441-05104-9}}</ref> His informal manner of address, calling his fellow pilots "fellas," and his casual terminology for enemy forces ("the little buggers") suggest a relaxed, down-to-earth personality that contrasts with more formal military protocol.
