Commodore (Canada)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Commodore is the lowest of the flag officer ranks in the Canadian Forces; it is equivalent to Brigadier General in the Army or Air Force. It is junior to Rear Admiral or Major General, and senior to Captain or Colonel.

The insignia of the Commodore is a single maple leaf, above which is a crossed sabre and baton surmounted by a St. Edwards' crown. This insignia is worn on the shoulder strap of the dress uniform tunic, along with a wide gold band on each sleeve. The insignia is also worn on shoulder boards and rank slip-ons.
