'''Admiral''' is a senior [[commissioned officer]] rank of the [[UNSC Navy]].


During peacetime, it is the highest military rank, and is equal with the rank of [[General]] in the [[UNSC Marine Corps]]. However, during times of war, senior Admirals may be promoted to the rank of [[Fleet Admiral]], which outranks Admiral.

===Responsibilities===
While Admiral is a rank of its own, the title "Admiral" is often used to refer to any of the flag officer ranks of the UNSC Navy:

*[[Fleet Admiral]]
*'''Admiral'''
*[[Vice Admiral]]
*[[Rear Admiral (Upper Half)]]
*[[Rear Admiral (Lower Half)]]
 
Due to the ambiguity of the title "Admiral", Admirals are often known as a "Four Star Admiral" or "Full Admiral" to distinguish it from subordinate ranks of Admiral. The term "Four Star Admiral" comes from the rank insignia worn on the uniform.
