one occasion on which a salute would be fired for a Naval
Officer of lower rank then those mentioned in the above
King’s Regulation (i.e. below that of Commodore). That is
to say, when a ship commanded by a Naval Officer of lower
rank than a Commodore fires a salute for an officer of the
rank of Commodore or above, a return salute of seven guns
is fired.
