In the Infopedia episode guide for episode #78 Ghost Town it says:

A message comes across the screen: “This is Expeditionary Force calling Earth. If anyone is reading this message, here are your orders. All Invid military outposts must be destroyed. Admiral Hunter is planning a major offensive, and calls upon all surviving forces to help destroy any military objectives.”

I’ve listened to that many times and I can clearly hear Gabby’s son say “SDF-4” and not “Expeditionary Force” when he says that. I think someone might have said Expeditionary Force somewhere else in this episode but that wasn’t it. It looks like a lot of these synopses came out of Robotech Art 1.

After all, the synopsis for episode 37 states that Bowie is Claudia’s little brother.

I, uh, sorta had the impression that he was her nephew…

Actually, he says both, in different shots of the communicator in the episode.

This threw me for a loop for the longest time. I always remembered SDF-4, and thought I was going nuts when I checked one of the two scenes to hear “Expeditionary Force”. Then I checked again and heard “SDF-4” and that confirmed.

Check it - they’re both there.

As for Bowie - good catch. These synopses were taken verbatim from Robotech Art 1; I thought I cought all of the obvious errors when I reviewed them.
