Joker is the known call sign for at least two pilots on Galactica:
- A restored Viper Mark II, Viper 1104,has a nameplate for a Lieutenant Pete Hickey[1], who was likely a Viper pilot assigned to Galactica during the first Cylon War (TRS: "Miniseries").
- Another Joker is on board Galactica during the Cylon attack and is launched in the first sortie against the Cylons before jumping to Ragnar Anchorage (TRS: "Miniseries, Night 1"). He apparently survives, as he is visible on the pilot's roster during "Act of Contrition."
Notes
- In keeping with using names of Miniseries crew members on nameplates for the Viper Mark IIs from the Galactica Museum, Pete Hickey is named after Miniseries sign fabricator Peter Hickey.
