The current Commander of the Navy is Vice Admiral Piyal De Silva. It is a position equivalent to that of First Sea Lord of the Royal Navy or Chief of Naval Operations in the United States Navy. By convention, serving Navy commanders have a rank of Vice Admiral, and will be promoted to the rank of Admiral on retirement or if appointed as Chief of Defence Staff (CDS). HistoryThe post of Captain of the Navy was created through the Navy Act of 9 December 1950, which also established the Royal Ceylon Navy.[1] In 1972, the "Dominion of Ceylon" became the "Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka" and the Royal Ceylon Navy was renamed the Sri Lanka Navy. The title "Captain of the Navy" was changed to "Commander of the Navy" through the Navy (Amendment) Law, No. 33 of 1976[2] in keeping with the terminology adopted by the other two services.
