			'''Katie''' is the wife of [[Raptor]] [[ECO]] (electronic countermeasures officer) [[Coker Fasjovik]] circa {{BCH\|42}}.

			Her husband is reticent to share many details regarding either herself or their personal life with others, but passes on a well-worn photo of her to [[William Adama]] on [[Djerba]], believing that he would die there {{TRS\|Blood and Chrome}}.

			== Script Version Differences ==

			In the pre-production script for ''[[Blood and Chrome]]'', Katie's relationship with Coker is portrayed with significantly more detail and emotional depth. The script reveals that Katie lives on [[Aerilon]] and had been writing letters to her husband, but Coker had stopped responding to her correspondence during his second tour of duty.<ref>''[[Blood and Chrome]]'' [{{fullurl:File:B&C Pre-Production Draft - 11-30-10 - Version 01.FDX.pdf\|page=96}} pre-production script dated 30 November 2010], pgs. 96-97</ref>

			The script version shows Coker's internal struggle with his relationship, explaining that he deliberately stopped communicating with Katie as a psychological defense mechanism. He admits to [[William Adama]] that soldiers sometimes "stop thinking about" what they have waiting for them back home because "it's easier not to sweat the future if you think you don't have one."<ref>''[[Blood and Chrome]]'' [{{fullurl:File:B&C Pre-Production Draft - 11-30-10 - Version 01.FDX.pdf\|page=97}} pre-production script dated 30 November 2010], pg. 97</ref>

			In a particularly poignant moment, when Coker initially tries to give [[William Adama]] Katie's photograph on [[Djerba]], Adama refuses and tells him to keep it so he can "try explaining to your wife yourself why you're such an asshole" and see if she'll take him back.<ref>''[[Blood and Chrome]]'' [{{fullurl:File:B&C Pre-Production Draft - 11-30-10 - Version 01.FDX.pdf\|page=97}} pre-production script dated 30 November 2010], pg. 97</ref> Coker responds with bitter humor, saying "That'll be the day," before apparently dying from his wounds.

	'~~''Katie''' is~~ the ~~wife~~ of ~~[[Raptor]] [[ECO]] (electronic countermeasures officer) [[Coker Fasjovik]] circa {{BCH\|42}}~~.		The script provides context for Coker's emotional distance from his wife, showing it as part of the psychological toll of extended combat duty rather than simple neglect. This backstory was ultimately cut from the final production, leaving only the brief mention and photograph exchange seen in the aired version.

	Her husband is reticent to share many details regarding either herself or their personal life with others, but passes on a well-worn photo of her to [[William Adama]] on [[Djerba]], believing that he would die there {{~~TRS\|Blood and Chrome~~}}.		== References ==

Junior Lieutenant '''Coker Fasjovik''' is a [[Raptor]] [[ECO]] (electronic countermeasures officer) serving the Colonial Fleet during the tenth year of the [[First Cylon War]].

==Service==

Drafted into the [[Colonial Fleet (TRS)|Colonial Fleet]] immediately after graduating from the University of Aerilon, and having served two tours of duty, Fasjovik has become emotionally worn by the war, and is openly contemptuous of inexperience and optimism in the face of the long and violent conflict. He is saddled with Ensign [[William Adama]] as the pilot of his Raptor, ''[[Wild Weasel]]'', upon the young ensign's assignment to ''{{RDM|Galactica}}''. Fasjovik actively despises Adama's gung-ho nature and rebukes Adama's attempts to befriend him, even declaring his [[Oliver Bead|previous pilot]], who was killed in combat, an "asshole" who was nevertheless worth "ten huskers like" Adama.

Fasjovik is relieved when Commander [[Silas Nash]] gives him and his new pilot a "milk run" to deliver cargo, as he only has forty-seven days remaining in his (mandatory) second tour of duty. However, much to Fasjovik's chagrin, the "milk run" is a pretense for a classified mission deep in [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] space involving [[Becca Kelly]], a computer programmer who refined the Cylons' [[MCP|artificial intelligence]] before the start of the war.

During an assignment on [[Djerba]], Fasjovik eventually realizes that Kelly is hiding something, and forces her at gunpoint to reveal her plan. She dupes him into believing that she intends to infect the Cylon computer network with a virus. However, as Kelly works, Fasjovik sees information about Colonial warships being uploaded. Realizing that she is betraying the hidden "ghost fleet" of Colonial ships being prepared for a surprise attack, he shoots her, but before he and Adama can leave the Cylon facility, he is in turn shot by Kelly. Adama destroys the communications array and stops the upload after Kelly runs out of ammo. Fasjovik and Adama help one another to escape, and are soon found by a SAR Raptor. His wounds heal, and with a new sense of respect and friendship for Adama, plans to finish off his remaining six weeks in the service.

==Private Life==

Fasjovik's father was a mining engineer who later became a professor at Promethea A & M. Despite this family connection, Fasjovik elected to attend the University of Aerilon, first intending to be a playwright, then later deciding to study music and becoming a skilled pianist. While taking shelter at an abandoned ski lodge on Djerba, he plays on a grand piano, and laments to Ensign Adama about the rarity of such opportunities in his life.
