The adventures of young William Adama in the First Cylon War.

The first Cylon war has been raging for 10 years and a young Ensign William Adama joins the fleet. He's disappointed not to be assigned to a fighter but to a freighter. His co-pilot, Lt. Coker Fasjovic, isn't too keen on having a rookie flying his aircraft as he has only a short time before he again becomes a civilian. Their cargo is a civilian scientist, Dr. Becca Kelly, but they no sooner leave than she has new orders for them and a new destination. She is less than forthcoming about just what her secret mission is but Adama is keen, particularly as it involves going into Cylon controlled space. Nothing is as it seems however.—garykmcd

Fresh out of pilot training, a young William Adama joins the aircrew aboard Battlestar Galactica. The First Cylon War is raging and an enthusiastic Adama wants to see action. However, rather than being assigned to a Viper he is assigned to a Raptor, a transport craft. His first mission couldn't be more of a milk run: transport a female scientist to a Colonial base in a safe part of the galaxy.—grantss
