Deletion of Doug Lewis (Royal Navy officer)

Comment: Commodore does indeed qualify under  #2, as it is equivalent to flag rank in other navies (it would naturally be ludicrous if a USN rear admiral (lower half) qualified because his rank included the word "admiral", whereas the entirely equivalent Commonwealth rank of commodore did not; same with brigadier generals and brigadiers). And the CBE has always been held to qualify under  #1. Only 100-200 are awarded every year, not 2,000 (OBEs and MBEs, on the other hand, do not meet ANYBIO). I have never seen a CBE deleted at AfD, and quite a few have been nominated by people who are clearly unaware of the honour's significance. So he qualifies twice

Comment: the question of  #2 is an interesting one. British commodores aren't flag officers (under the British set-up), but their NATO positioning does mark them equivalent in rank to officers in other armed forces/navies that ''are''. I'm inclined to agree with Necrothesp that since it is the level of authority that underpins #2, not specific phrasing, the criterion is satisfied

Comment: not notable for military achievements (unless there's more to add), not promoted to 2-star (rear admiral) so fails ; commodores are not generals/admirals, they're one-stars, and do not qualify as flag officers. If he had done something notable in combat as a 1-star, my vote would be keep; but his sole one-star appointment seems to have been at Greenwich
