Battlestar Helios (D5)

The Helios is a Mercury Class battlestar, and is under the command of Commander (later Rear Admiral) Naomi Sakura. Sakura was the XO until Commander Gates died of a sudden heart attack. With the weapons tests coming up Tolan decided best to promote Sakura to Commander and find a replacement XO, which came in the form of Colonel Jorge Cordova formerly of the Battlestar Asgard, a Valkyrie Class Battlestar.
