The commission of Brevet was accorded to officers who had been appointed to serve as a military officer in a—usually higher and often temporary—rank without a confirmed promotion to the specified rank.
History
As a lieutenant with the New Republic, Myn Donos rose rapidly through starfighter pilot training and was given command of Talon Squadron upon graduation, with the brevet rank of captain over the training squadron. The rank was removed when he was reassigned after the loss of his squadron at the Ambush at Gravan Seven.
It appears that a similar position had also been used by the Imperial Navy, as Michael Unther had been the Admiral of a Sector Fleet prior to his promotion to the rank of Rear Admiral, which was almost certainly the lowest substantive flag rank in the hierarchy.[source?]
