equivilent military rates/ranks

[mollykins]

does anyone know of a table on the internet, with the equivilent rates and ranks of the militaries, including the marines, that doesn't miss any out? so far i've searched but haven't found a decent table.

This lists both UK and US tri-serives ranks.

cheers, i thought the one we needed to learn started at petty officer for the navy but was the equivelant of corporals, i'll just learn as much as possible. :D

there are a few more that are different between the army and marines, and need to know those aswell. Its confusing!!!

[mollykins]

how can the tables all be different?!

[mollykins]

plus the navy one has fleet chief petty officer, which i've been taught as being a warrant officer, so i don't know if any other ones from your link booldawg are wrong?

[mollykins]

booldawg, one of the rates is wrong, so i don't know if any of the others are aswell. Plus there seems to be that havent got equivilent rates/ranks that what i had.

[mollykins]

seems to be more that havent got equivilent rates/ranks that what i was taught.

[mollykins]

i'm just saying that i was taught using a table that's diferent, and now i need to revise, but i havent got that table i was taught, so need to find the best one.

[mollykins]

for a start one of them isnt on there so its got at least one mistake.

Mollykins, what do you want to know?

[mollykins]

the correct coversions between the rates and ranks, but the links to tables and ones i've found on google are all different, which makes no sense at all, plus some of them i've seen are wrong, including rates and ranks that don't exist.

[bobjugs12]

British or NATO ranks?
Which service?

[boxtops]

Perhaps they don't all have exact equivalents?

[bobjugs12]

Boxtops, it's complicated; but most of them have equivilants although there are some spurious ones

[mollykins]

british army, marines, navy and raf.

[mollykins]

at cadets, we had to fill a table in, and we had it so they all had equivilents, so there wasn't two stages of warrant officer but it was just about correct, and these other tables i've found on google are all diferent to each other, which makes no sense.

[mollykins]

i've used booldawgs link and adjusted and correct it, so i've got the same table i learnt at cadets.
