User:RelentlessRecusant/Rear Admiral (RelentlessRecusant)

Rear Admiral is an enlisted rank of the Bastion of the Precursors Ministry of Defense.

It is classified as O-5 (Officer staff, Grade 5) and is most commonly found in the Bastion Defense Fleet, although it is uncommonly seen in the Ministry of Intelligence and Reconnaisance. Rear Admirals in the Defense Fleet are typically non-combatant staff officers, while Rear Admirals in the Ministry of Intelligence and Reconnaisance serve as major section leaders within their major departments.

Alternate "O-5" pay grades are Commodore and Minor General. Commodores in the Defense Fleet serve as commanders of small taskforces, although it is not uncommon for Rear Admirals to take over the same combatant command responsibilities. Minor General is typically used in the Bastion Planetary Forces and Bastion Homeworld Security.
