Colonial Military Code
From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide
The Colonial Military Code refers to the rules and regulations which govern the actions of the Colonial Fleet and Colonial Marine Corps.
When Karl Agathon, as executive officer of the Demetrius, attempts to relieve Kara Thrace of command, he invokes his authority by citing Article 10 of the Code (The Road Less Traveled).
Notes
- It appears the Colonial Military Code is analogous to real-world documents such as the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) which governs the United States armed forces.
