As a member of Galactica's command staff, Petty Officer 2nd Class Anastasia Dualla [du.ˈɑ.lə] manages the main communications board in CIC, and works closely with Adama, Tigh, and Gaeta in serving as Galactica's eyes and ears to her fighters and The Fleet. Her responsibilities include:

• Monitoring fleet-wide communications, including all of Galactica's incoming and out-going communications
• Ensuring shipboard communications are properly logged (Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down)
• Relaying communications to all of Galactica's Vipers and Raptors during off-ship missions
• Managing other minor CIC operations in Lt. Gaeta's absence.

Biography

Dualla's father thought that her enlistment in the Colonial Fleet was crazy, and he viewed the military as a joke. She signed up anyway because she wanted to believe in something. This rift with her father would continue throughout her service and the last time they spoke they got in a heated argument; two weeks later the Cylons attacked, and Dualla never got a chance to reconcile with him (Final Cut).

At the time of the Cylon attack she monitors fleet-wide communications. Dualla is one of the first to notice the unusually-high levels of shipboard malfunctions and failures aboard other battlestars (Mini-Series).

After the Cylon attack, she co-ordinates Fleet activities with Tactical Officer Felix Gaeta (e.g. Jumps). In this responsibility, she discovers that the Olympic Carrier fails to Jump with the fleet after yet another Jump to escape a 5-day long, relentless attack by the Cylons after their escape from Ragnar Anchorage (33).

Due to his attraction to Dualla, presidential aide Billy Keikeya "volunteers" her to join an off-ship mission to the Astral Queen (Bastille Day). Led by Captain Lee Adama, the mission is to attempt enlistment of prisoners aboard the Queen in resupplying Galactica with water following an act of sabotage (Water). During the mission, the team is taken hostage by prisoners during a jail break lead by fellow Sagittaron and political agitator Tom Zarek.

Freed without personal harm during this siuation, Dualla returns Billy Keikeya's affections, and they date during off-duty periods (Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down).

Dualla receives a minor concussion when Cylons board the ship (Valley of Darkness). Dualla aids in Laura Roslin's escape from Galactica after the President's arrest by covering up the tracks of their secret communications coordinating their movements in the Fleet, and getting Colonel Tigh to sign permission to close off a causeway which they use as an escape route. At this time, Dualla seems to take a greater personal interest in Apollo (Resistance).

Dualla is assigned to give D'anna Biers a tour around the battlestar as part of Bier's documentary of the ship (Final Cut). Lee Adama seems to return Dualla's personal attraction during a sparring exercise with the petty officer (Flight of the Phoenix).

Dualla's avionics training helps in building a stable communications package for the experimental Blackbird fighter (Flight of the Phoenix).

Notes

• Dualla's counterpart in the Original Series is Rigel.
• Dualla was known throughout all of the first season and part of of the second season only as "Dualla" or "Dee". Her first name was finally revealed in the episode, "Final Cut". "Anastasia" means "resurrection" in Greek.
