* Hadrian was the name of a Roman Emperor who was characterized by his efforts to stabilize and strengthen the Roman frontier, building suitable defenses and abandoning provinces that were too costly to guard. Sergeant Hadrian plays a similar role: she tirelessly works to defend ''Galactica'' against its enemies (although she focuses on internal enemies, whereas the emperor focused on external ones). In keeping with the show's basis in Greek mythology, Hadrian was a noted Hellenophile, and did much to enrich Greek culture in the Empire during his reign.

* In "[[Litmus]]" Hadrian wears [[Military Ranks (RDM)#Insignia|rank insignia]] with one chevron on a green backround that are normally used by [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]] Non-Commissioned Officers. While she is a Marine, it is possible that some rank insignia are used in both services.<br> Her full rank can be assumed to be 'Staff Sergeant' which equates to 'Petty Officer, 1st Class'. Placing her one rank lower or higher would create a conflict with the established insignia of 'Petty Officer, 2nd Class' and 'Chief Petty Officer' respectively. | |||
