Sir George Zambellas was appointed First and Principal Naval Aide-de-Camp at the same time as his appointment as First Sea Lord. Aiguilettes on the right shoulder are the insignia of an Aide-de-Camp.
Since 1972, the office has been united with that of First Sea Lord.[citation needed]
Flag aide-de-camp
Flag aide-de-camp is the designation given to the next most senior naval aide-de-camp after the First and Principal Naval ADC. Between 1969 and 2012, the Commander-in-Chief Naval Home Command invariably held this appointment (from 1994-2012 the post of Commander-in-Chief Naval Home Command, and with it the office of flag aide-de-camp, was united with the job of Second Sea Lord).[3] Since October 2012, however, the Commander-in-Chief post has to all intents and purposes ceased to exist.[4]
