The correct name is Cmdr. Alfredo J. Sanchez. I was not aware that "Cmdr." was a naval rank.
I'm used to O-5 Commander as "CDR"
I know they renamed O-7, Commodore, as Rear Admiral (lower half) or "RDML"
What is a "Cmdr."? I suspect that the corrected name has an incorrect title.

Look in various style guides and you'll find it. For example, an Army Lieutenant General is abbreviated LTG in the military and government, but Lt. Gen. in the press.

Old abbreviation that is no longer used, and certainly not in any official reports.
