Biography
Bojay used to be attached as a Viper pilot aboard Galactica before being transferred to the Pegasus and the Fifth Fleet two yahren prior to the Cylon-initiated holocaust.
Bojay, as well as the rest of the Pegasus crew, were presumed dead at the Battle of Molecay, due to Commander Cain's insistence that they take an indirect route to the Colonies.
Apparently typical of the Pegasus crew, Bojay finds offensive strikes to be as easy as breathing, and worships the "living legend", Commander Cain.
Bojay and Lieutenant Sheba intercept Galactica Viper pilots Apollo and Starbuck while they are on a routine recon mission, subsequently escorting them back to Pegasus.
Bojay brags about the accomplishments of Cain during and after the Battle of Molecay, and is one of the first people (along with Cain's daughter, Sheba) to suggest mutiny after Adama relieves the war legend of command.
He, along with Sheba and a small, but armed, group of Pegasus pilots hinder Apollo, Flight Sergeant Jolly and Starbuck from completing a necessary fuel transfer from Pegasus stores to the Fleet (The Living Legend, Part I). Fortunately the oncoming onslaught of Cylon fighters diffuses this confrontation. After thwarting Baltar's devestating attack on the Fleet, plans are drafted to take the Cylon fuel stores on Gamoray.
Later, he is added to the team that drops down to the planet to take care of the Cylon control center on Gamoray while Galactica shuttles would stock up with tylium fuel to get the fleet past the besieged "outer colony". He is injured during the ground skirmish with Cylon Centurions, and has to be evacuated to the nearby battlestar Pegasus, by order of MedTech Cassiopeia. He and other injured and "non-essential" personnel are shuttled to Galactica prior to Pegasus' attack on two Cylon basestars (The Living Legend, Part II).
Bojay is absorbed into Blue Squadron and is one of the fighter pilots that goes missing by the intervention of the Beings of Light (War of the Gods).
Notes
- The character of Bojay, portrayed by Jack Stauffer, was very much like Laurette Spang-McCook's character of Cassiopeia -- the character was to be killed, but then saved and added to Battlestar's recurring cast of characters once found to be useful. Since Stauffer and Richard Hatch (Apollo) worked so well together, Larson and his peers elected to keep the character of Bojay on. Although the last time we had ever seen Bojay was in War of the Gods -- where he disappeared in the first act after encountering the Beings' colossus -- Stauffer would've had a strong recurring part like those of Herb Jefferson Jr., Laurette Spang-McCook, or Anne Lockhart, had there been a second season.
