 | | 30 Dec 2007 01:45 AM | | Craig and Tugboat have both made R/C Naval Combat Admiral!
I don't know which made Admiral first, as I wasn't watching close enough. (sorry guys, it was close!)
Unfortunately Tuggy, you are a moderator... so your rank will not be displayed.
There is one last rank remaining for you guys, but don't go crazy... It will take even you some time to reach. "Fleet Admiral"
Why "Fleet Admiral" and not "Admiral of the Navy" you ask? Well...
#1 "Fleet Admiral" was used in WWII
where "Admiral of the Navy" was Spanish-American War
#2 "Fleet Admiral" was used in wartime
where "Admiral of the Navy" was a post war honor only
