I believe Admiral George W. Anderson, Jr. (December 15,1906-March 20, 1992) should be on this list of 4 star admirals. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LaGrassini ( talk • contribs) 18:25, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Why do all the links where the word "warrant" appears go to the article for Midshipmen rather than Warrant officer or Warrant officer (United States)? -- The Grumpy Hacker ( talk) 16:30, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Admiral Harry B. Harris Jr. was promoted to Admiral today (October 16, 2013), and assumed command of United States Pacific Fleet shortly thereafter. (Audrey McAvoy (2013-10-16). "New commander to take over U.S. Pacific Fleet". Honolulu Star Advertiser. Retrieved 2013-10-16.) His biography is at: http://www.cpf.navy.mil/leaders/harry-harris/ Can someone please make the appropriate changes to the list? Mark M. at U.S. Pacific Fleet ( talk) 01:23, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
When Farragut was promoted to full admiral, it was a time when our Navy was still a small domestic Navy and not an international one. There was no need for a four-star admiral. Farragut became the first full admiral which at the time was three stars. This also applied to his step-brother David Porter. Here is the following:
One-Star: On July 16, 1862, congress authorized nine Rear Admirals, Farragut was among them.
Two-Stars: Two years later, Farragut became the first Vice-Admiral.
Three-Stars: On July 25, 1866, Farragut became the first Admiral.
Now, when Farragut died, his step-brother David D. Porter was promoted to Admiral and Stephen C. Rowan to Vice-Admiral. However, when they died Congress did not allow any more promotions to Admiral (Three Stars) nor Vice-Admiral (Two-Stars). That was until 1915 when Congress authorized an Admiral and Vice-Admiral for the Atlantic, Pacific and Asiatic Fleets.

@ Neovu79: Inquiring as to what approach we should take with the official portraits. When I changed them a few weeks ago (applies to the Army and Air Force lists as well), I used the latest/clearest official portraits I could find of them as a four-star general or admiral, not their latest portraits after being promoted to general of the Army of fleet admiral. As such, what standards should be set in this regard so as to establish consensus? Personally, I believe four-star portraits should be used.
Secondly, I have thoughts of adding the post-military positions of officers with leadership positions in military non-profit associations and organizations. For example, Carter Ham and Robert Brooks Brown have served as presidents/CEOs of the Association of the United States Army, and Peter Pace has been chairman of the board of trustees of the United States Naval Institute Foundation (USNI), housed on the grounds of the United States Naval Academy, since 2017. Should these be added? SuperWIKI ( talk) 04:49, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
@
Neovu79: you made a series of mass changes in a
single edit, with the edit summary: "Undid revisions by 37.171.4.158 (talk) Added postions were not from when the officer was serving in uniform
, but you also undid
three unrelated edits I had made the previous day; that included unususal notes at the top of the tables, minor heading changes at References, and fixes to multiple cite errors. Can you take a look? Thanks -
