Would anything preclude a 2279 TMP?

[QUOTE]Originally posted by Woodside Kid: [QB] I don't buy the idea that Kirk's shoulder epaulets were some kind of generic admiralty symbol. Every other officer rank we saw in the film matched the sleeve markings to the epaulet markings; why make a difference for a person serving at HQ? After all, we dont do a similar thing to the rank insignia of officers assigned to the Pentagon. My quibble as to where commodore fits in has to do with the fact that (when it existed), it was the lowest flag officer rank. If my surmise about Kirk being a one star admiral is correct, then where does that leave commodore rank? Unfortunately, the rank structure in ALL the movies is screwed up. Lt. JG disappears in TMP, Lt. Commander is virtually gone as well, and I don't know what the hell Valeris is supposed to be in TUC (lietuenant? lt. commander? lt. jg? take your pick). And, speaking as an ex-NCO in the Air Force....WHERE THE HELL ARE THE ENLISTED FOLK???? [/QB][/QUOTE]
