Ranks of the Gallambrian Armed Forces

Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Gallambrian Armed Forces ranks of officers and enlisted personnel in each of its three service branches of the Royal Gallambrian Navy, the Gallambrian Army, and the Royal Gallambrian Air Force has evolved over the last 120 years. The insignia used to identify these ranks have generally remained the same.

The following tables show the "equivalent rank and classifications" for the three services, as defined in the Pay and Conditions Manual. "Equivalent rank" means the corresponding rank set out under Regulation 12 of The King's Regulations for HM Armed Forces 1997.

Note that the most senior warrant officer in each of the four services is appointed either Warrant Officer of the Navy (WO-N), Corps Regimental Sergeant Major (C-RSM), Regimental Sergeant Major of the Army (RSM-A), or Warrant Officer of the Air Force (WOFF-AF), as appropriate. These are appointments, not ranks; these four people hold the rank of Warrant Officer in their respective services. However, they each wear special insignia, different from the rank insignia worn by other warrant officers. Although the RGN and RGAF have the one warrant officer rank, the RGM and Army has three. The soldier appointed Regimental Sergeant Major of the Army (RSM-A) holds the unique Army rank of Warrant Officer, also where the marine appointed Corps Regimental Sergeant Major (C-RSM) holds the unique Marine rank of Warrant Officer as well.
