Willy is a leader of a California motorcycle gang.

After seeing Troy and Dillon's turbines on the highway, one of Willy's men, Donzo, asks him about the bikes. He replies that he's seen nothing like them before and decides to start trouble, which the two Colonial Warriors escape from upon activating the flying feature of their bikes ^{(1980: "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part I")}.

Willy Griffin is a young boy on Earth who discovers Troy and Dillon's Vipers while playing with his dog, Skipper ^{(1980: "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part I")}.

Griffin runs back and reports the sighting to his parents just as dinner is being served, but is dismissed as another of the child's tall tales out of fear that his impressionable sister may believe it out of hand. In return for cleaning up the dirt he tracked in, Griffin and his father venture into the field later that night, where this tale is confirmed. Upon bringing a local sheriff out to the field to confirm the sighting, they just miss the Vipers launching, in response to the crisis condition alert issued by Commander Adama ^{(1980: "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part II")}.

Vindication[edit]

After initially being ridiculed by other children led by his bully Tucker, Griffin rediscovers the ships in the field following Troy and Dillon's return from their adventures in Earth's past. Griffin also discovers a third Viper belonging to the Colonials' adversary, Xaviar.

The ships are being hauled away by the United States Air Force when Troy and Dillon return from dropping off Jamie Hamilton. While Griffin was told by an Air Force Colonel where they were going, he was told to keep it secret; Troy and Dillon operate on the belief that Griffin is aware and follow him to his school. Ultimately, they convince Griffin to disclose information on the whereabouts of their ships in exchange for a loan of one of their wrist computrons. Griffin soon uses the wrist computron to get revenge on Tucker, a local bully, by using the invisibility field to embarrass him. After returning the wrist computron, he informs the Warriors of the Vipers' location ^{(1980: "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part III")}.

William "Willie" Adama (formerly Capricanized as William Adams) is the only son from Joseph Adama's first marriage to Shannon Adama. Adama is named after his deceased grandfather.

Born on Caprica in 69 BCH, his father was a Tauron immigrant and an attorney specializing in criminal defense and civil liberties with ties to the Ha'la'tha (TRS: "Litmus," "Hero"; ^{(CAP: "Pilot")}). Both his mother and his sister, Tamara, died in a suicide bombing on the Maglev 23 when he was 11. Because of anti-Tauron prejudice, Adama's father assumed the more Caprican-sounding surname Adams, but eventually the family reverted to the original Tauron name after 58 BCH ^{(CAP: "Pilot")}.

After the death of both his mother and sister, Adama becomes estranged from his father, who is indirectly involved with the creation of the Cylons after his uncle, Sam Adama, violently secures the meta-cognitive processor ^{(CAP: "Pilot" and "Know Thy Enemy")}. As a result of this estrangement, Sam assumes a parental role in Adama's life, much to his father's chagrin, and as a result becomes rebellious ^{(CAP: "Rebirth", "Reins of a Waterfall" and "There is Another Sky")}. His grandmother, Ruth, encourages Adama's pursuit of his Tauron culture, even offering him uncharacteristically chilling advice in the process ^{(CAP: "Pilot", "Gravedancing" and "There is Another Sky")}.

He and his father later undergo a Tauron ritual that is meant to deal with the loss of loved ones, and this seems to aid in the reconciliation between them ^{(CAP: "There is Another Sky")}. At the time, he is unaware that his father had Daniel Graystone create an avatar of his dead sister; he knew they were friends, but is oblivious to the circumstances that putrified this friendship ^{(CAP: "Gravedancing")}.

When the Guatrau's daughter, Fidelia Fazekas, discovers that Joseph and Sam are smuggling U-87 Cyber Combat Units to the Tauron resistance fighters, she reveals the betrayal to her father which leads to his order for their execution. After a failed assassination attempt thwarted by Ruth, Sam and Joseph take Willie and Evelyn Adama, and plan on hiding. When Sam and Joseph go to retrieve the money stashed away at the Tauron restaurant Sam works out from, they run into Ha'la'tha soldiers. During the ensuing fight, Willie runs to help his father and uncle, and is mortally wounded as a stray bullet goes through his hand and into his stomach during the short-lived firefight. Willie dies within minutes in Sam's hands ^{(CAP: "Here Be Dragons")}.

The "William Adama" name lives on in his half-brother from the marriage of Joseph and Evelyn Adama: "Bill" Adama, who would later be known as "Husker" and would become the last commander of the battlestar Galactica (CAP: "Apotheosis"; the Re-imagined Battlestar Galactica series proper).

Willie King is the 19-year-old son of Portia King, hailing from Sagittaron.

Along with his mother, King accompanies a group of roughly 20 fellow Sagittarons to Galactica. Upon landing on Galactica, he demonstrates symptoms of a sickness which can easily be cured. However, due to Sagittaron beliefs, his mother refuses treatment.

Despite his fellow Sagittarons' vehement reservations, his mother seeks treatment from Doctor Michael Robert, 12 hours after King develops symptoms (although Robert claims King was 3 days symptomatic). Despite allegedly being given the treatment, he dies, leading his mother to petition Captain Karl Agathon to investigate Doctor Robert as she believed Robert killed her son.

Her beliefs are confirmed by Doctor Cottle, who tested King's blood, detecting acute cellular destruction as a result of a destructive bisphosphonate ^{(TRS: "The Woman King")}.
