Admiral Peter R. Corman is a high-ranking officer in the Colonial Fleet circa 6 BCH (94YR)[footnotes 1].

As a member of the Colonial Fleet Admiralty, Corman ordered Commander William Adama and the battlestar Valkyrie to escort a recon vessel over the Armistice Line prior to the Fall of the Twelve Colonies (TRS: "Hero").

Mission Authorization

edit

Admiral Corman authorized the classified reconnaissance mission that preceded the Fall of the Twelve Colonies. During a briefing with Commander Adama, Corman emphasized the critical nature of the operation, stating that they might "never have this opportunity again" to gather intelligence on potential Cylon activity beyond the Armistice Line.

Corman made clear that the mission was highly classified, telling Adama "this conversation did not happen" and ensuring that Adama understood the severe consequences if the operation were discovered by the Cylons. The Admiral granted Adama's request to use his own personnel for the mission, particularly for the Stealthstar pilot, Daniel "Bulldog" Novacek, acknowledging the specialized nature of the reconnaissance operation (TRS: "Hero").

Notes

edit
  • Looking closely at the right-most pin on the character's uniform decorations in the publicity photo in this article, one will see a Colonial Warrior uniform pin, an homage to the Original Series and their Warriors. These pins are award decorations that, previously, were only depicted on dress gray uniform sashes.
  • Corman's first name and middle initial originate from a framed award certificate on the wall of his office. The full name does not originate from the October 25, 2006 "Full Collated" version of the "Hero" script, making it likely that this was embellished by the property department.

From Script to Screen

edit
  • The October 25, 2006 "Full Collated" version of the "Hero" script contains an extensive briefing scene between Admiral Corman and Commander Adama that establishes the political context and reconnaissance objectives of the mission.[script 1] This detailed scene was omitted from the aired episode, which instead conveys the mission background through dialogue and flashbacks.
  • The screenplay depicts Corman's office with specific environmental details, including sunshine and blue sky visible through a picture-frame window, and describes Corman as "drenching his words in grave sincerity" while treating the briefing as his "moment in time."[script 2]
  • An additional scene in the script shows Corman debriefing Adama after the mission, with rapid-fire questioning about what Adama observed, including Corman insisting "they were Cylons" and pressuring Adama to acknowledge the enemy contact despite Adama's uncertainty.[script 3] This scene was removed from the final version, likely to focus on Adama's personal guilt rather than the political aftermath.

  1. While dialogue from "Hero" places these events at 1 BCH, this contradicts previously established dates about the time Adama and others served on Galactica. See Hero#Analysis for a detailed explanation why Battlestar Wiki chooses to treat this as a continuity error.

Peter Laird is a civilian aeronautical engineer pressed into service by order of Admiral Helena Cain after the Fall of the Twelve Colonies.

Biography

edit

Conscription and Scylla

edit

Laird is aboard the civilian transport Scylla when it, along with several other vessels, is found by the battlestar Pegasus about a week after the attack. Admiral Cain places military priorities above all else and orders that the ships be scavenged for anything that would be of use to Pegasus: supplies, weapons, parts and skilled civilian personnel. Laird, because his aeronautics background, becomes a selectee dragooned into Pegasus's crew along with 14 other people on board.

Colonel Fisk and Lieutenant Shaw take a team of Marines to the Scylla to carry out the order. Laird speaks as the passengers' representative and refuses to cooperate. When Fisk's show of intimidation fails to persuade the civilians, Cain orders that the selectees' families be shot to demonstrate the alternative. Fisk continues his threat to shoot them, but Shaw takes the initiative and shoots one woman in the head, triggering the Marines to kill nine more. Word spreads throughout the civilian vessels and breaks all resistance, and Laird and the others are transferred to Pegasus. Laird's wife and family are likely among the dead, if not left behind (TRS: "Razor").

Service on Pegasus and Galactica

edit

He is put into uniform and assigned deck chief. When he pays Galactica a visit, he meets his counterpart, Chief Tyrol. Laird is both appalled and impressed by the Blackbird, Tyrol's new stealth fighter, and is surprised to find the plane is fitted with obsolete DDG-62 engines he designed (TRS: "Pegasus").

Laird is transferred to Galactica as part of Admiral Cain's crew reassignments, and assigned as deck chief prior to Tyrol's arrest for Lt. Thorne's death [1]. He also makes a suggestion to Galactica's deck crew that increases the Blackbird's fuel efficiency by two percent (TRS: "Pegasus").

Laird has difficulty managing the hangar deck as Tyrol's substitute and lacks military bearing, but assures Commander Adama that all ships will be ready for "the attack thing" (TRS: "Resurrection Ship, Part I"). Following Admiral Cain's death, her crew transfers are reversed and Tyrol is re-instated as Galactica's deck chief. Laird presumably returns to his previous assignment as the Pegasus deck chief (TRS: "Resurrection Ship, Part II").

Promotion and Death

edit

Over two years later, Laird is promoted to Galactica's chief of the deck after Tyrol's demotion by Admiral Adama; he retrieves the navigational data from Eammon "Gonzo" Pike's damaged Raptor that tells them where the rebel baseship jumped to (TRS: "Sine Qua Non"). He is briefly seen on the hangar deck with Marcie Brasko where, elsewhere further down the deck, Tyrol hears The Music and is summoned to the pristine Viper 8757, with other select persons (TRS: "Revelations").

In the early stages of a mutiny aboard Galactica, Laird finds several individuals attempting to steal a Raptor reserved for emergency medical transport to fly Tom Zarek to Colonial One. Felix Gaeta attempts to convince Laird that this is simply a change of orders that he wasn't informed of, but when Laird moves to confirm that story, Zarek kills him by striking him in the head with a wrench (TRS: "The Oath").

Notes

References

edit
  1. In the regular "Pegasus" episode, it seems like Laird replaces Tyrol after his arrest. However, the extended cut places it before Lt. Thorne's death as part of the crew integration.
