Biography

The Armistice Station Officer is known as Colonel Wakefield according to the novelization of the Miniseries. He is also the father of Boxey. He was assigned to the Armistice Station, where he would represent the Twelve Colonies to attempt their continuation of diplomatic relations between the exiled Cylons and humans.

Col. Wakefield is the first member of the Colonial Fleet to see the Cylons in over 40 years when two upgraded Cylon Centurions and someone that appears to be a strikingly beautiful human female arrive at the station. This female is actually Number Six, a Cylon Agent. This copy of Six sexually assaults the officer. He dies when a Cylon basestar destroys the station with missiles, signaling the start of the Cylon Attack (Miniseries).

Col. Wakefield was apparently assigned Armistice Station duty by Fleet Headquarters, who sends a general message on the status of all FTL-capable ships that were able to Jump to the Armistice Station to aid the Courier officer when he fails to report or return to Headquarters. Commander Adama, on receiving this message from Headquarters from Galactica's Watch Officer, Lieutenant Gaeta, indicates that the battlestar's scheduled decommissioning ceremonies later that day would make them a bit too busy to help (Miniseries).

Notes

The actor portraying Col. Wakefield, Ryan Robbins, underwent a significant transformation through makeup and prosthetics in order to appear older than he really was. The original script of the Mini-Series called for the opening to show a young Col. Wakefield repeatedly visiting Armistice Station over the 40 years between the end of the Cylon War and the Attack on the Colonies and progressively aging with each visit. Multiple scenes with Robbins in various age-enhanced makeup were filmed, however all of them except the final scene where Six makes her entrance were cut.
