I didn't either. Of course, it was always just a temporary rank anyway. But I did think that they had gotten rid of it a few years ago. Did they decide to reinstate it?

I checked a web site and no current rank of Commodore is listed. Maybe the guy is a Commander (CDR) and the writer called him Commodore.

It's been brought back recently to denote someone in charge of a task force under a certain amount of vessels I believe. I don't think it's a permanent rank.
