BLackstar Squadron is Assigned to the Strikestar Cruiser Harrier. The Harrier is usually assigned as an Escort to the Battlestar Galactica. The Galactica's Commander, Adama, is the Commander in Chief of all Colonial Forces. He's also a member of the COuncil of the 12. The only time the Galactica is not the Command ship of Colonial Fleets is when The President is aboard the Battlestar Atlantia. It is this reason that Both Battlestars Make up the Backbone of the Colonial First Fleet.
With the Coming of the End of the Thousand Yahren War, The Harrier has been detached from the First fleet and assigned to the outskirts of Colonial Space. The area furthest from the Cylon Front.
Her Current Mission is Anti Pirate PAtrols. The Strikestar Might Very well turn into the biggest active duty WArship in the COlonial Fleet. It was hinted that this might be a requirement of the peace treaty.
Then news of the Attack hit the Ship. The Harrier was in the middle of searchign a freighter entering Colonial Space. All channels went from static to images of destruction and chaos.
Then, Hope, A transmission from a Battlestar, The Galactica of all ships. The message, a Call. To gather every ship possible, load them with all the survivors they could manage and to set off for a new world. to rebuild and Gain strength again.
B ut the Harrier Faced a Problem. They were on the far side of Colonial Space, And Cylon patrols were now on scanners. There was no direct route to the Galactica. They would have to go around the Cylons. there was no way a single Strikestar could survive an engagement at this time. And The Harrier had already began collecting a half donzen civilian ships that had been int eh area.
No, they would have to travel the long way around, and hope that they could catch up to and join the Galactica.
And this is where the journey of the Squadron begins.
Edit - This is the Harrier
