Screen use

Deleted Scenes of "Water"

These were first used in "Water," but were relegated to deleted scenes where Laura Roslin is formally welcomed aboard Galactica.

They were later seen in "Act of Contrition" for the military firing squad that gave Zak Adama the funerary firing salute, seen during flashback sequences featuring Kara Thrace, Lee Adama and William Adama.
