Cylon Raiders destroy Harvester 217 as it attempts to claim a Cylon fuel tanker (Battlestar Galactica Classic #5).

Parrin's Harvester[1] is a Harvester within the Okaati fleet circa 7358. It is commanded by the Okaati's leader, Parrin, and piloted by Grust.

As the ship returns from a meeting with Baltar aboard his basestar, it is escorted by a Cylon Raider phalanx following the Fleet's entrance into the Empyrean Expanse and brief trespass into Kiernu-controlled space. Upon Blue Squadron's return from running defense against Kiernu forces, they happen upon the ship as it is returning to its fleet. Captain Apollo erroneously believes that the ship is being attacked by the Cylons and they quickly dispatch the escort, until they themselves come under attack by the Comitat (whom the Cylons are defending Parrin against), and the ship escorts the misdirected Colonial force to their own fugitive fleet (Battlestar Galactica Classic #0, #3).
