Officers may receive commissions within the Lumenic Air Force through a number of methods, including attending the [[Lumenic War College]] or the [[Lumenic Royal Air Force Academy]], attending a four year university which sponsors a Lumenic Air Force officer training program, or attending a officers candidate school sponsored by the Lumenic Air Force. This latter option is the preferred method for enlisted servicemen and women to advance into commissioned officer ranks, though being a current member of the Lumenic Air Force is not a requirement to attending OCS, however, all applicants, both existing service and new inductees, must possess a four year degree from an accredited university. In some rare cases, a two year degree in a specialized field may be accepted for OCS applicants. Graduates of either an officer training program from a four year university, or from either the Lumenic War College or Air Force Academy, will receive their degrees prior to commission, and will then attend an abbreviated officer candidate school designed to provide them with training deemed necessary for military applications. | Officers may receive commissions within the Lumenic Air Force through a number of methods, including attending the [[Lumenic War College]] or the [[Lumenic Royal Air Force Academy]], attending a four year university which sponsors a Lumenic Air Force officer training program, or attending a officers candidate school sponsored by the Lumenic Air Force.

In the Lumenic Air Force, {{wpl|warrant officer}}s are known as ''sottufficiale'' and are considered to be non-commissioned officers, outranking the senior-most enlisted ranks | In the Lumenic Air Force, {{wpl|warrant officer}}s are known as ''sottufficiale'' and are considered to be non-commissioned officers, outranking the senior-most enlisted ranks but ranking below the officer grade of C‑1. They are primarily utilized to handle the upper administrative tasks of the Lumenic Air Force, serving as senior non-commissioned officers at the wing and air division level. Warrant officers of the S-1, S-2 and S-3 grade do not receive a commission from the King of Luminerra, as commissioned officers do, but instead are appointed to their rank by the Legatos of the Lumenic Legion. Warrant officers holding the ranks of S-4 and S-5 are, however, do receive their commission from the King of Luminerra and are therefore considered to be commissioned officers. | ||
''Sottufficiales'' are often employed in highly skilled, single-track specialty roles. In general, the Lumenic Army utilizes ''Sottufficiales'' in two ways; as aviators and technical specialists. ''Sottufficiales'' aviators will command both fixed wing and rotar wing aircraft, as well as lead, coach, train, and counsel subordinates. In some cases, a ''Sottufficiales'' may also command detachments, units, activities, vessels, aircraft, and armored vehicles. A ''Sottufficiale'' technical specialist would be primarily tasked to serve as a technical expert, providing valuable skills, guidance, and expertise to commanders and organizations in their particular field. | |||
One special exception to this general rule is the rank of ''Maresciallo dell'aviazione'' or Marshal of the Air Force, who serves as the senior most non-commissioned officer in the Lumenic Air Force. The ''Maresciallo dell'aviazione'' is appointed to serve as a spokesman to address the issues of enlisted soldiers to all officers, from other ''Sottufficiales'' and ''Sottotenente's'' to the Air Force's highest positions. in effect making the ''Maresciallo dell'aviazione'' the senior most enlisted advisor to the '' Generale dell'aviazione'', or the General of the Air Force. The exact duties vary depending on the Air Force's current ''Generale dell'aviazione'', though much of the ''Maresciallo dell'aviazione'''s time is spent traveling throughout the nation to various Air Force bases and facilities, observing training and talking with soldiers and their families. | One special exception to this general rule is the rank of ''Maresciallo dell'aviazione'' or Marshal of the Air Force, who serves as the senior most non-commissioned officer in the Lumenic Air Force.

Ranks
Commissioned
Officer's in the Lumenic Air Force occupy positions of leadership and responsibility, assuming direct command responsibility for formations, and instillations of the service. Commissioned officers are considered commanding officers under royal authority and are directly commissioned by the King of Luminerra. A superior officer is an officer with a higher rank than another officer, who is a subordinate officer relative to the superior.
Officers may receive commissions within the Lumenic Air Force through a number of methods, including attending the Lumenic War College or the Lumenic Royal Air Force Academy, attending a four year university which sponsors a Lumenic Air Force officer training program, or attending a officers candidate school sponsored by the Lumenic Air Force. This latter option is the preferred method for enlisted servicemen and women to advance into commissioned officer ranks, though being a current member of the Lumenic Air Force is not a requirement to attending OCS, however, all applicants, both existing service and new inductees, must possess a four year degree from an accredited university. In some rare cases, a two year degree in a specialized field may be accepted for OCS applicants. Graduates of either an officer training program from a four year university, or from either the Lumenic War College or Air Force Academy, will receive their degrees prior to commission, and will then attend an abbreviated officer candidate school designed to provide them with training deemed necessary for military applications.
In rare cases, are appointed by superior officers from enlisted or non-commissioned officer ranks through a process known as direct commissioning, which can occur as a battlefield promotion or be granted to a certified civilian professionals such as scientists, pharmacists, physicians, nurses, clergy, and attorneys. These airmen will bv directly commissioned upon entry into the Lumenic Air Force. However, these officers generally do not exercise command authority outside of their specific branches, and are highly regulated along their career tracks.
Officers of the Lumenic Air Force can be divided into three levels; junior officers, senior officers, and general officers. Junior officers, sometimes referred to as flight officers, consist of officers in ranks E-1 through E-3. These officers preform a variety of functions, often overseeing enlisted members of the Lumenic Air Force in the execution of tasks. Senior officers are officers ranked E-4 and E-5. These officers generally hold staff positions for senior officers, squadron or wing level commands, or are tasked with overseeing a group of junior officers and enlisted personal assigned to a specialized mission. General officers consist of officers ranking between E-6 and E-9 and command large elements of the Air Force, such as air groups or entire Air Force instillations, and command missions and programs of great responsibility.
Warrant Officer
In the Lumenic Air Force, warrant officers are known as sottufficiale and are considered to be non-commissioned officers, outranking the senior-most enlisted ranks but ranking below the officer grade of C‑1. They are primarily utilized to handle the upper administrative tasks of the Lumenic Air Force, serving as senior non-commissioned officers at the wing and air division level. Warrant officers of the S-1, S-2 and S-3 grade do not receive a commission from the King of Luminerra, as commissioned officers do, but instead are appointed to their rank by the Legatos of the Lumenic Legion. Warrant officers holding the ranks of S-4 and S-5 are, however, do receive their commission from the King of Luminerra and are therefore considered to be commissioned officers.
Sottufficiales are often employed in highly skilled, single-track specialty roles. In general, the Lumenic Army utilizes Sottufficiales in two ways; as aviators and technical specialists. Sottufficiales aviators will command both fixed wing and rotar wing aircraft, as well as lead, coach, train, and counsel subordinates. In some cases, a Sottufficiales may also command detachments, units, activities, vessels, aircraft, and armored vehicles. A Sottufficiale technical specialist would be primarily tasked to serve as a technical expert, providing valuable skills, guidance, and expertise to commanders and organizations in their particular field.
One special exception to this general rule is the rank of Maresciallo dell'aviazione or Marshal of the Air Force, who serves as the senior most non-commissioned officer in the Lumenic Air Force. The Maresciallo dell'aviazione is appointed to serve as a spokesman to address the issues of enlisted soldiers to all officers, from other Sottufficiales and Sottotenente's to the Air Force's highest positions. in effect making the Maresciallo dell'aviazione the senior most enlisted advisor to the Generale dell'aviazione, or the General of the Air Force. The exact duties vary depending on the Air Force's current Generale dell'aviazione, though much of the Maresciallo dell'aviazione's time is spent traveling throughout the nation to various Air Force bases and facilities, observing training and talking with soldiers and their families.
