'''Blue Squadron''' is the [[wireless]] callsign of several fighter squadrons.<br />
<br />
It is the designation of the initial Viper squadron sortied from ''Pegasus'' during its [[Battle of the Communications Relay|attack on a Cylon communications relay]] under Admiral Cain ([[Razor]]).<br />
<br />
During the [[Battle of the Binary Star System]], Blue Squadron is shown on the DRADIS screen participating in the battle. It is presumably led by [[Kara Thrace|Starbuck]] ([[The Captain's Hand]]).<br />
<br />
During the [[Battle of New Caprica]], Blue Squadron departs ''[[Galactica]]'' during planetfall. They lead hit and run attacks on surface installations during the battle. It is possibly led by [[Brendan Costanza|Hot Dog]] ([[Exodus, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
Later, the name is used for a [[Raptor]] picket led by [[Karl Agathon|Helo]] ([[The Son Also Rises]]). Blue Squadron appears on ''Galactica'''s DRADIS during the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]] ([[He That Believeth In Me]]).<br />
<br />
== Similar terms ==<br />
* A group of Vipers is called "Blue Team" during a training exercise. Led by [[Louanne Katraine|Kat]], it measures its skills against [[Red Team]] ([[Torn]])<br />
* In a "[[A Day in the Life]]", Lee Adama orders his pilots to do flying and landing exercises, dividing them into red, blue, yellow and green "sections".<br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
* Originally it seemed that Blue Squadron could be a standing squadron on ''[[Pegasus]]'' (similar to the naming scheme of the [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Original Series]]). However, later the term is used for widely different units, which are led by different people. This suggests that it is merely a callsign to identify the squadrons on the wireless and [[DRADIS]].<br />
