The picture caption and infobox say "rear admiral", but the article says she was promoted from "rear" to "two star". I don't know enough about us navy ranking to just go and modify the text- maybe someone out there knows how to make the descriptions consistent? — Preceding

It just states she was promoted to two-star. Given the similarity in name for a one-star and two-star navy admiral, I think the way it is in the article is ok now.--
