The rank of Sea Commodore (O7) is the seventh most senior commissioned officer rank in the Imperial Army Nautical Force Command and the first flag rank.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
Each Squadron in the Imperial Army Nautical Force Command will be commanded by at least a Sea Commodore, although this may occasionally be a temporary rank for an officer of lesser substantive rank standing in while a new senior officer arrives, being "tried in office" and/or awaiting confirmation of promotion.
Appointment to the rank of Sea Commodore will at least cause the individual to rise to the level of social distinction of an Imperial Gentleman in Imperial Society by default should he not already be of a more prestigious background personally. [1] Under the right circumstances, the appointment to this rank may attract the title of Knight. [2]
