I was on tribble and I am not a fan of everyone calling me rear admiral lower half all the time. I get that that's my rank but that is not the proper way to adress any admiral. You call an admiral "admiral" regardless of lower half or upper half. Please fix this.

What I want to know is, are there any Admirals in reality with that rank, 'cos I certainly haven't heard of one.

Yes in real life there are as it is a Naval rank, but as far as Star Trek that is a very good question. I have seen many many Admirals through out Star Treks many faces but never once has one been noted to be a Rear Admiral, let alone Lower or Upper Half!
I get that Starfleet is a derivative of the Navy...for some reason I asume cause they are space SHIPS but I honestly don't feel that the Lower or Upper needs to be a part of the rank in 2.0 just keep me at Rear Admiral until I make Vice Admiral.
But my address should still just be Admiral, same as Klingon should just be General.

Yes there is in both the Navy and the Coast Guard but no one is calling a one-star admiral a rear admiral lower half. They call them admiral. Star trek is the same way. That admiral in the pegasus mission episode was a rear admiral upper half but everyone called him admiral.
