Two rows of gold oak leaves are located on the black visor of the white service cap. From 1968 to June 2010, the navy blue service dress tunic featured only a wide gold braid around the cuff with three gold maple leaves, beneath crossed sword and baton, all surmounted by a St. Edward's Crown located on cloth shoulder straps.

Vice-admirals are addressed by rank and name; thereafter by subordinates as "Sir" or "Ma'am". Vice-admirals are normally entitled to astaff car; the car will normally bear a flag, dark blue with three gold maple leaves arranged one over two.

InFrance,vice-amiral is the most senior of theranks in the French Navy; higher ranks,vice-amiral d'escadre andamiral, are permanent functions, styles and positions (in Frenchrangs et appellations) given to avice-amiral-ranking officer. Thevice-amiral rank used to be an OF-8 rank in NATO charts, but nowadays, it is more an OF-7 rank.

The rank ofvice-amiral d'escadre (literally, "squadron vice-admiral", with more precision, "fleet vice-admiral") equals a NATO OF-8 rank.

In theancien régime Navy, between 1669 and 1791. The office of "Vice-Admiral of France" (Vice-amiral de France) was the highest rank, the supreme office of "Admiral of France" being purely ceremonial.

Distinct offices were :

  • 1669–1791 Vice-admiral of the West (Atlantic Ocean).
  • 1669–1791 Vice-admiral of the East (Mediterranean Sea).
  • 1778–1791 Vice-admiral of the Asian and American Seas (American shores).
  • 1784–1788 Vice-admiral of the Indian Seas (Indian Ocean).

Vice-amiral commandant

[edit]

Vice-amiral commandant (literally, "commander of the vice admiral) was unofficial rank inWorld War I. At the time France had the two-rank system offlag officers; as a temporary measure, to bring its system into alignment with the rank system of flag officers of other countries, it is distingunished by wearing a 3mm silver line on the 3-star cap. Such vice admirals enjoyed the status and treatment offull admirals.

Philippines

[edit]

In thePhilippines, the rank vice admiral is the highest-ranking official of thePhilippine Navy. He is recognized as the flag officer in-command of the navy, an equivalent post to the Chief of Naval Operations in the U.S. Navy.[citation needed]

Poland

[edit]

Before World War II, the vice admiral was the highest rank in the Polish Navy.Józef Unrug was one of the only two officers to achieve the rank. The other wasJerzy Świrski. Poland had only one sovereign sea port,Port of Gdynia, and was slowly building a small modern navy that was to be ready by 1950. The navy was not a priority for obvious reasons. At present, it is a "two-star" rank. The stars are not used; however, the stars were used in between 1952 and 1956 and are still used in the vice admiral's pennant.[citation needed]

United Kingdom

[edit]
Main article:Vice-admiral (Royal Navy)

In theRoyal Navy the rank of vice-admiral should be distinguished from the office of "Vice-Admiral of the United Kingdom", which is anAdmiralty position usually held by a retired "full"admiral, and that of "Vice-Admiral of the Coast", a now obsolete office dealing with naval administration in each of the maritime counties.[citation needed]
