Crashdown's Given Name?

Thanks to Bradley for taking time out from what has got to be an increasing busy schedule to help us fans enjoy the minutae we scour from the show.

I found, in the officially licensed Battlestar Galactica Collectible Card Game, a card for Crashdown. It lists a given name for him: "Alex Quartararo."

As with Cally Henderson, was the name "Alex Quartararo" ever used on any of the character's uniforms, early scripts, or the like? If that's not the name you had on file, could you divulge the character's given name?

It would be nice to add a name to this character's biography, despite his demise. --Spencerian 09:02, 21 September 2006 (CDT)

Alex Quartararo is definitely Crashdown's given name. We gave it to the art department so they could label his uniforms, Raptor, locker, bunk, etc. I have no idea whether it appears anywhere on screen. Sam Witwer, the talented actor who played Crashdown, recently completed an album with a band I believe is called the Crashtones - Bradley Thompson 17:54, 25 September 2006 (CDT)
