Admiral

Admiral is a military rank, the equivalent of which is used by the service organizations of many civilizations. As a traditional grade, the rank of Admiral is between the rank of Vice Admiral and Fleet Admiral. Admirals command fleets of ships, as opposed to a Captain, commanding a single ship or a unit. In comparison to other ranking systems, this rank is equivalent to the ground-based rank of General, or the Candorian Union's quasi-military rank of Legate. This grade is used in some form by many other cultures, including the Folain Star Empire, the Jeloran Empire and the inhabitants of Earth.
