And of Adama's first-ever mission. So his first-ever mission was in the last battle of the war. So how was he a hotshot pilot in the first war, you know? That's the thing that's weird about it.

Hence the extra impact of seeing how he stands up and leads humanity (along with a teacher-become-President) after the cylon holocaust...

But then again, perhaps he gained his rep after the cylon war. Based on offhand references to "uprisings" he could've participated in those. Or he was just a good pilot. Starbuck had a rep as an ace pilot before the cylon attack, after all. Or he could just be one of those military types who rose through the ranks in peacetime. That surprised me as well.
