Lieutenant Stuart "Banzai" Bachanal^[1] was a Viper pilot and squadron leader assigned to Galactica during the Cylon War, circa 41 BCH (59YR).

During Operation Raptor Talon, William Adama flew as Banzai's wingman in a failed attempt to defend Columbia from the Cylons who had knocked out her defenses ^{(TRS: "Razor Flashbacks, Episode 3")}.

Banzai had to be firm with the willful young Adama, having to pull Adama away from a wounded Jaycie McGavin ^{(TRS: "Razor Flashbacks, Episode 2")} and later unsuccessfully trying to keep Adama from following two Cylon Raiders down to the ice planet ^{(TRS: "Razor Flashbacks, Episode 3")}.

Notes

Banzai briefly appears in Battlestar Galactica: Origins 5 comic, informing William Adama that the Cylons signed the Armistice and that Jaycie McGavin died as a result of her injuries.
Banzai may be named after Dr. Buckaroo Banzai from The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension.
