Chain of Command

Presently, the first in command aboard Galactica is Admiral Adama, and the second in command is Colonel Tigh. Captain Karl Agathon has risen to third-in-command and often assumes the post of executive officer instead of Tigh. Beyond that the hierarchy is unclear. Major Cottle is a staff officer and outside of the chain of command. Given Captain Aaron Kelly's detention in "The Son Also Rises" he is presumably no longer a candidate.

  • Colonel Saul Tigh, Acting ("Scattered" to "The Farm") - Relinquishes command after Commander Adama returns to duty
  • Admiral William Adama ("The Farm" to "Sine Qua Non") - Promoted to admiral by President Roslin (Resurrection Ship, Part II)
  • Colonel (temporarily Admiral) Saul Tigh ("Sine Qua Non" to "Revelations") - Adama resigns position temporarily to search for Roslin
  • Admiral William Adama ("Revelations" to present) - Adama returns to the Fleet
