Battlestar Pegasus[edit]
- The Current CAG of the Battlestar Pegasus is Captain Kara "Starbuck" Thrace. Admiral Cain promoted her from Lieutenant to Captain and made her the new Pegasus CAG after witnessing her daring reconnoiter of the Cylon Resurrection Ship. ("Resurrection Ship, Part I)
- Prior to Captain Thrace, the Pegasus CAG was Captain Cole "Stinger" Taylor. (Pegasus)
Note[edit]
"CAG" is a US Navy term that has gained widespread recognition through films such as Top Gun and television series such as JAG. The term CAG is technically obsolete in the modern US Navy as Air Groups are now know as Air Wings, it is still used though, especially on an informal level.
