I'm not so sure the flag-officer bar is crossed as the article states it was a 'graveyard promotion', a practice where a retired officer in good standing is advanced one rank on death, i.e. he never wore stars while in service/alive. But it ''contributes'' to the potential notability; two Navy Crosses ''is'' a SOLDIER pass, which contributes definitively/further, and there's ''just'' enough on the reference rack to convince me that GNG is ''also'' met, as well as ANYBIO as mentioned above. Each ''individual'' assessment of notability is somewhat weakish but the sum of their parts is that this individual is, in fact, notable. The article is somewhat messy (especially the lede) but |AfD is not for cleanup
