Joanne Pollux is a deckhand aboard Galactica circa 3 ACH (2002BYR).
When Diana Seelix is denied starting flight training, she voices the opinion that the pilots "don't want knuckledraggers stinking up the pilot ready room." After Chief Galen Tyrol incites the deck crew to go on strike, she informs Kara "Starbuck" Thrace of their refusal to do further work on the Vipers.
She later participates in the ceremony where Seelix is formally promoted to ensign where she joins alongside Redford in saluting her colleague (TRS: "Dirty Hands").
