'''Rear Admiral (Lower Half)''' is a senior [[commissioned officers|commissioned officer]] rank of the [[UNSC Navy]].
 
It is equal with the rank of [[Brigadier General]] in the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] and [[UNSC Army]].
 
In informal settings, Rear Admirals (Lower Half) are typically referred to simply as "Admiral".
 
A Rear Admiral (Lower Half) may be also referred to as a "one-star Admiral" to distinguish it from the other ranks of Admiral; so named for the one star rank insignia worn on the uniform.
 
==Trivia==
*The name comes from the old sailing times. For large fleets, the "Rear Admiral" would be in charge of commanding ships at the rear.
