Gene Markey Facts
Markey was intensely proud of the fact that he was a Rear Admiral in the United States Navy. So proud, in fact, that ANY mail that wasn't addressed to Admiral Markey (including bills) was tossed into the trash. He always liked to be called, "Admiral Markey" and never, "Mr. Markey". Rarely did people call him "Gene". One of his grandsons sometimes addressed him as , "Admiral".

He advanced to the rank of Commodore in the US Navy during World War II. He was promoted to Rear Admiral after the war.

Graduated from Dartmouth College, B.A. - 1918.
