词条 | Flag captain |
释义 |
In the Royal Navy, a flag captain was the captain of an admiral's flagship. During the 18th and 19th centuries, this ship might also have a "captain of the fleet", who would be ranked between the admiral and the "flag captain" as the ship's "First Captain", with the "flag captain" as the ship's "Second Captain". Unlike a "captain of the fleet", a flag-captain was generally a fairly junior post-captain, as he had the admiral to keep an eye on him, but – like a "captain of the fleet" – a "flag captain" was a post rather than a rank.[1] References1. ^{{cite book|last=Rodger|first=N.A.M.|title=The Wooden World: An Anatomy of the Georgian Navy|publisher=Naval Institute Press|year=1986|location=Annapolis, Maryland|page=19|isbn=0870219871}} {{mil-rank-stub}}{{navy-stub}} 2 : Captains of the Royal Navy|Royal Navy |
