Although I was the one who write this article, it appears the source for this was nothing more than a forged military document and this rank was pretty much "made up". explain what happened, my original knowledge of this rank came from photocopies out of Nimit'z record which were provided to me by another WWII historian who I knew in college. Hence, I wrote the article and cited Nimit'z record as a source. Nimitz's record has since become public at NPRC and, after reviewing it myself just recently, I could find nothing in there about this rank. Upon contacting my original fellow historian, he admited to me that he had made those documents on his computer using cut and pasted scans out of Nimitz's record with doctored references to a rank called Flag Admiral which he first heard about in Star Trek. He said he had done so as a joke becuase he thought a six star rank in the U.S. Navy would have "been neat". Thus, this page should be deleted since there simply was no such rank as this in the US Navy. OberRanks ( talk) 03:15, 4 November 2008 (UTC) reply
