Thank you. Is Admiral of the Black a reference to the old Royal Navy practice of separating flag ranks into Red, White, and Blue, or is it a way to separate Space Navy ranks from Sea Navy ranks?

“They planned their campaigns just as you might make a splendid piece of harness. It looks very well; and answers very well; until it gets broken; and then you are done for. Now I made my campaigns of ropes. If anything went wrong, I tied a knot; and went on.”
