Military rank is a key feature in the Colonial Fleet dynamics of Battlestar Galactica; one of these ranks is that of CAG – Commander Air Group. This position, often filled by dynamic and charismatic figures, plays a vital role in the survival and defense of the Twelve Colonies and, later, the remnants of humanity.

&#x2715 Remove Ads 5 Captain/Major Lee Adama Played By Jamie Bamber Lee Adama serves as CAG on two occasions in Battlestar Galactica – once as a captain, and once as a major. Lee's call sign is"Apollo" and he is first appointed CAG by Saul Tigh in the miniseries, following the Cylon attack on the Twelve Colonies. Far from being a nepotistic achievement, Lee is reluctant to serve on Galactica.

4 Captain George Birch Played By Benjamin Ayres George"Catman" Birch has a tenuous CAG tenure in Battlestar Galactica. He is made both captain and CAG following the defection of Captain Lee Adama in season 2. Catman's position is temporary, lasting only two episodes. While Adama values his dedication and loyalty, Tigh doubts Birch's experience.

On the other hand, that there is just the right amount of uncertainty around who is Cylon and who is not without compromising the portrayal of humanity is part of what makes BSG great. Starbuck's ending twist in Battlestar Galactica remains divisive.
