On 22 November 1945, Halsey did not hold the rank of Fleet Admiral. He took the oath of that rank three weeks later, on December 11, 1945. Further, he did not retire on 22 November, he hauled down his flag for the final time on that date from his flagship, the battleship South Dakota. He then served on special duty in the office of the secretary of the navy until his retirement from active service in March of 1947. But, due to his final rank of fleet admiral, he remained on the Navy active duty status until his death.
