Colonial Marine Corps

2005-09-15T17:19:35Z

ShotgunMosquito: /* Known Marines */

The members of the '''Colonial Marine Corps''' are the ship-based soldiers of the Colonial Fleet. The ''[[Galactica]]'' has about thirty of them left, although there are no snipers among them ([[Bastille Day]]). Marines' duty include guarding the [[CIC]] and [[Brig]] ([[Mini-Series]]) and assisting the [[Master-at-Arms]] ([[Litmus]]). They have several times been used, on [[Raptors]], for spaceborne assaults ([[Bastille Day]], [[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II]], [[Resistance]]).

Sergeant [[Hadrian]] is a Marine, but no officers (if there were any) appear to be stationed on the ''[[Galactica]]''; when they are shown on missions, Fleet officers are commanding them.

==Known Marines==
*Sergeant Hadrian
*Corporal [[Venner]]
*Private [[Scott Kelso|Kelso]]

==Notes==

Their battle [[Uniform |uniforms]] appear to be based on those of the U.S. Army's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Force Delta Force] or the counter-terrorist branch of the British Army's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Air_Service Special Air Service Regiment]. Besides their black combat uniforms, the weapons and personal combat equipment of the Marines are similar to what police SWAT teams and anti-terrorist, special forces units utilise. We are yet to see the Marines in camouflage combat uniforms and armed with standard infantry weapons.

Pegasus (episode)

ShotgunMosquito: /* First Run Air Dates & Releases */

: ''For information related the [[battlestar]] ''Pegasus'' itself, see ''[[Pegasus]]''.''

: ''Information provided by [http://gateworld.net/galactica/news/2005/06/galacticadiscoverssistersh.shtml GateWorld.net].''

== Overview ==
: ''Tensions run high when the ''Pegasus'', a battlestar more advanced than the ''[[Galactica]]'', is found -- only to have Admiral [[Nelena Cain]] usurp command of the fleet and foist her demands on those under her new command.''

== Summary ==
*The ''Pegasus'', a Mercury-class [[battlestar]], has joined the fleet. She survived the attack by [[blind-jump]]ing as the [[Cylon]]s attacked the [[Scorpion Ship Yards]].
* A Cylon fleet, comprised of two [[basestar]]s, support ships and a large mothership of unknown purpose have been trailing the fleet -- and detected by Cain and the ''Pegasus''.
* Upon assuming command of the fleet, Cain begins moving crew members around, transferring [[Lee Adama]] and [[Kara Thrace]] to the ''Pegasus''.
* [[Helo]] and [[Galen Tyrol]] are arrested for court martial, after a ''Pegasus'' lieutenant, [[Thorne]], is murdered.

== Questions ==

== Analysis ==

== Notes ==

* [[Nelena Cain]] is the female version of [[Cain (TOS)|Cain]], who was portrayed by the late [[Lloyd Bridges]] in the original ''[[Battlestar Galactica (1978)|Battlestar Galactica]]''.
* This episode is inspired by the two part episode, "[[The Living Legend (TOS)|The Living Legend]]".
* "Pegasus" apparently starts a multi-episode arc and is slated to air mid-way in the second season.
* "[[Gina]]" is a variant of [[Number 6]] who has lost her faith. She posed as a civilian dock worker who was rescued by the ''Pegasus'' and was responsible for tipping off the Cylons -- killing 800 of the ''Pegasus'' crew in the process.
* [[Ronald D. Moore]] also wrote another episode called [[wikipedia:The Pegasus (TNG episode)|The Pegasus]], in the seventh season of ST:TNG
