In the US Navy, there is also John Barry, though neither he nor Decatur would rate Rank 6 by most measures.

Nope.

I think I guessed right on the last one, so here goes:

TL 5-6
Status 8
Appearance (very high)
Fit or Very Fit

Destiny (bad) or maybe Unluckiness

Obsession (personal appearance), including an extreme diet
Occasional depression, bipolar disorder or some such

Riding (equines)
