Rigel

Flight Corporal Rigel is a Colonial Core Command operative on battlestar . Rigel is noted for being a professional woman who approaches her responsibilities with enthusiasm. 
Among her duties in Core Command, Rigel's primary responsibility is in the coordination of defense and launch approval procedures (similar to a landing signal officer). She is also responsible for processing data receives from s out on patrol. In one instance, she supplies information to and concerning the Ravashol pulsar on Arcta 
Among her notable moments in Core Command, Rigel becomes quite joyous over the female pilots' successful defense of Salik's medical shuttle . 
== Notes ==
* Rigel was credited only as "Woman on Duty" for "Saga of a Star World". This was changed in her subsequent appearances.
* In "The Long Patrol," a computer readout lists Rigel as a sergeant and is thus inaccurate, as end credits for episodes list her as "Flight Coporal". 
* In the Re-imagined Series, Rigel's contemporary is Petty Officer Anastasia Dualla, but shares tactical data to command staff in a way similar to Lieutenant Felix Gaeta.
* The name "Rigel" is taken from Beta Orionis, in the constellation Orion. It is a B8 Supergiant star, some 400 times brighter than the Earth's sun. It is believed to be a triple star system, but it is unlikely any of the stars within the system support life-bearing planets.
* The name is a contraction of the Arabic "Rijl Jauza al-Yusra," meaning "left foot of the Central One," indicative of Rigel's position in the "left foot" of Orion.

Riggs

Riggs is a Marine serving on during Commander 's tenure circa . 
Riggs takes part in a firearms drill conducted by Kendra Shaw, the battlestar's new executive officer, during one of Admiral William Adama's visits. Tasked to assemble his rifle blindfolded and within a limited time, Shaw asks him if he is wiling to bet his life and the life of his comrades on his work. When Riggs nervously affirms, Shaw calmly points his rifle at her chest and orders him to pull the trigger. When Riggs hesitates, Shaw pulls the trigger herself. The rifle just clicks and Shaw shows Riggs that he forgot one part of the firing mechanism, then orders him to repeat the exercise .
== Notes ==
*Given the basic firearms assembly training shown, it is likely that Riggs is a new recruit.

Road Work on Colonial 5 Nears Completion

Road Work on Colonial 5 Nears Completion is a The Caprican News article written by Ann Royall. It was printed in Martius 29, YR42.
== Story ==
After almost two years, and close to one million cubits of the city's tax dollars, roadwork on Colonial Highway 5 is finally nearing completion. What was once a road paved with low-grade asphalt and filled with potholes, is now a state-of-the-art roadway. "Though the repairs have taken longer than expected, we're extremely pleased with the results," said Althea Erasmus from the City of Caprica Department of Public Works "and we think the citizens will be, too." 
The repairs included a thorough re-paving, new guard rails, and a widening of the roadway in some areas. And with only three days work ahead left to go, the repair team at the DPW is ready to celebrate. "Though that storm a while back slowed us down by a good month or so, we're finally in the home stretch," said longtime DPW worker Jonas Malkas. 
Well I, for one, am looking forward to enjoying the fruits of their labor (and our tax cubits). Let us know what you think about fancy new Colonial 5 after you've taken it for a test drive! Sound off in the comments below.

Robber

Robber is an ambrosa smuggler.
He hijacks 's Recon Viper for the purposes of traveling to the merchant colony Aeries, after fleeing the clutches of Croad, an Enforcer from the Proteus prison colony.
Unknown to Robber, the planet he is contacting is in Cylon hands, and Lieutenant and Captain are subsequently dispatched to deal with it before the Cylons can track the signal. Their mission is aborted after Cassiopeia deciphers it as an Aeries merchant code.
After a brief firefight staged on a planetoid in a vacant settlement, Robber gives himself up after Boomer comes across his wife, Slayer, and daughter Tanya. Upon obtaining similar knowledge of Proteus that Starbuck already possesses, Apollo, Boomer, and Robber are forced into going back to that very same planetoid. (While the reconnaissance fighter is subsequently recovered along with its hijacker, the stop to Proteus is the only choice since the Fleet changes course.)
After the defeat of the trio of Cylon fighters, and the freeing of the Proteus descendants of the Original Sinners and Enforcers, Robber and his family join up with the Fleet with a warm welcome from Commander .
== Notes ==
* Robbery is the crime of seizing property through violence or intimidation. A perpetrator of a robbery is a robber.
* In the novelization of "The Long Patrol," the character of Robber is female—and is hence named Roberta by Starbuck.
* Robber, unlike other Proteus prisoners, lacks any sort of number. As does his wife, Slayer.
* James Whitmore, Jr. is the son of veteran actor James Whitmore.
