While officers from the U.S., British, French and Japanese navies make up the bulk of the work, officers from 22 countries, including Australia, Canada, Germany, India, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, and Spain, are also included. The main criterion for inclusion is that each person must have actively served in the rank of at least rear admiral, but not necessarily in enemy action. This effectively rules out people who were granted the rank on retirement, as a courtesy titleAdmiralsBiographyDictionariesNaval historyDictionariesAdmiralsNaval history359.0092/2359.00922Stewart William1927-1535168MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910788082803321Admirals of the world3783160UNINA
