I did a partial revert to your edits on [[Military Ranks (RDM)]]. I left the reversal of the insignia, but undid your edits to the table. It has been discussed at great length on the talk page. Equating Commander (BSG) to Rear Admiral (USN) | I did a partial revert to your edits on [[Military Ranks (RDM)]]. I left the reversal of the insignia, but undid your edits to the table. It has been discussed at great length on the talk page. Equating Commander (BSG) to Rear Admiral (USN) does indeed make a nice looking rank chart with a perfect 1:1 equivalence, and at one time it looks like that, but his role in the show is more that of a ship's captain. To that end, it makes the most sense to not strive to get that 1:1 list. It's just meant as a guideline to maybe understand it better, but the purpose of the page is not to force BSG into a direct comparison with the US Navy. There is no need for that, as there are obviously differences already with the mix between army and navy ranks.<br/> | ||
Furthermore, there is some circumstantial evidence that Adama and Cain are Rear Admirals. The rank is mentioned in dialogue in the Extended Version of "Pegasus", the rank pin has 2 bars and there are 2 stars in a Dradis display next to ''Pegasus'' (See the footnote to that rank). Maybe you meant that Cain should be one rank higher than Adama, but they wear the same insignia. --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 13:48, 17 March 2007 (CDT) | Furthermore, there is some circumstantial evidence that Adama and Cain are Rear Admirals.
