Overview[edit]
Full Name: Joyce* Hadrian
Rank: Sergeant
Age: Mid-30s (?)
Marital Status: Unknown
Children: Unkown
Current position: Master-at-Arms Battlestar Galactica, formerly part of the 75th Battlestar Group
(Played by: Jill Teed)
Sergeant Hadrian is the Master-at-Arms of the Galactica, and one of its few remaining Marines. She is responsible for the internal security of the ship (Litmus). As such, Commander Adama places her in command of investigating Cylon sabotage {Water). It is apparently in this duty that she investigated the flight deck accident that resulted in the death of thirteen Viper pilots (Act of Contrition). After the suicide attack of Aaron Doral, Adama places her in command of an independent tribunal to attempt to locate Cylon saboteurs aboard the Galactica. After refusing to defer to Adama's authority, and accusign Adama of being involved, he forcefully disbands the tribunal, and confines Hadrian to her quarters (Litmus).
