Collingwood Rear-Admiral and Vice-Admiral — 1799–1804

Generated illustration. Not a historical photograph. A sailing fleet. Not a likeness.

Overview

The promotions are already on Collingwood Cuthbert — Biography. He reached rear-admiral in February 1799 and vice-admiral in April 1804.¹

The Promotions

This note covers those two promotions only. A patent, a later year, and duties of the flag stay on RESEARCH_QUEUE.

Collingwood Succeeds Nelson — 1779–1780 already used the Badger / Hinchinbrook succession and left these promotions queued. Mediterranean Fleet 1805–10 is the April 1806 command, not this rank step. Baron Collingwood of Caldburne and Hethpool — 9 November 1805 is the Trafalgar barony. Do not invent a start-of-flag cruise.²
