Meaning: Prison; detention centre.
Brig is a US military term with one of two uses:
- A jail or prison on board a U.S. Navy or Coast Guard vessel.
- A jail or guardhouse, especially on the premises of a U.S. military installation.
The Galactica seems to have two brigs. One with at least two small cells with bunks. There is also another brig with one larger cell with no commodities for high-security prisoners. In the episodes in which the brigs has made an appearance, there is usually always a Marine guard standing watch inside the room. In the high-sec brig, there are usually around four.
After Galactica-Boomer was revealed as a Cylon, Colonel Tigh ordered a third custom-made super-reinforced brig to be constructed. It was built for the specific purpose of containing captured Humano-Cylons, who possess far greater than human strength, for an extended period (Resistance). The new brig was constructed with maximum security in mind; instead of having simple bars, it's walls consist of many metal grid screens welded tightly together, and reinforced by plexiglass (a telephone is used to communicate between the inside and outside of the cell). After being brought to the Galactica, Caparica-Boomer was detained within the new Cylon-brig cell, presumably for an indefinate period. Number Six claims that Sharon's hybrid daughter will be born in this cell (Home, Part II).
Notable chracters who have spent time in the brig are:
Season 1
- Starbuck -- Striking a superior officer in the Mini-series
- Aaron Doral -- Under suspiscion for being a Cylon agent in the Mini-series
- Specialist Socinus -- Lying under oath and leaving a post in Litmus and is released in a deleted scene in Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I
- Gaius Baltar -- Act of treason by collaborating with the Cylons in Six Degrees of Separation
- President Laura Roslin -- consequence of a successful coup d'etat led by Commander Adama in Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II
- Apollo -- mutiny in Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II and appearing in Scattered. He is able to be let out of the brig when on duty.
Season 2
- Boomer -- shooting a superior officer twice in Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II and appearing in Scattered
- Chief Tyrol -- under suspicion of conspiring with the Cylon Boomer in Resistance
- Cally -- for discharging a firearm without permission in a crowded corridor in Resistance and appearing in The Farm
- Caprica-Sharon -- Permantly detained (for being a Cylon) in the new custom-built Cylon holding cell in Home, Part II.
