  • Support I think you may have more than you realize here with this photo. If I am reading our article on United States Navy Admirals correctly, this was probably one of the first nine United States Navy officers promoted to the rank of admiral in US history. If the other images are of equal quality, then perhaps an image set for FP promotion should be considered. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:14, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
