Rear Admiral Thomas Boone, USN was a recurring character in the US Military Television Series JAG. His first appearance on the show was as the CAG aboard the USS Seahawk. Admiral Thomas Boone had a long and distinguished career in the US Navy, rising to the rank of Rear Admiral and was considered for promotion to Vice Admiral. However, due to allegations of war crimes he committed in Vietnam in 1968, he was subsequently court-martialed. Although he was acquitted of the charges, he requested retirement from the US Navy and was never promoted to Vice Admiral.

He is a family friend of Captain Harmon Rabb as he knew his father Lieutenant Harmon Rabb Snr.
