Asha Janik

Asha Janik, a colonist from Picon, is a member of the "Demand Peace" movement.

Formerly a maintenance worker on a civilian ship in the Fleet, the Greenleaf, Janik is recruited to aid in ammunition creation and stocking for Vipers.

She apparently tampers with several rounds, leaving the casings weak and prone to explode, damaging a Viper's gun or even a whole wing section. One of her sabotaged rounds damages Kat's port gun during the start of her CAP duty shift. Deck Chief Galen Tyrol quickly identifies the problem as sabotage by weighing the rounds by hand and by memory.

Captain Adama arrests her. Janik practically confesses to the crime when seeing Adama by yelling a declaration of her group's causes throughout the ammo machinery area as she's carted away.

Later, Admiral William Adama and Executive officer Saul Tigh look at brochures made by the "Demand Peace" movement that were found in Janik's quarters (Epiphanies).
