The three broad categories of commissioned rank are Flag or General rank, Command rank, and basic Officer rank. Air Force rank, particularly that of the Royal Air Force (RAF) is briefly discussed. Some other grades of rank that occur in other military establishments, like those of Germany or the Soviet Union, thus may be overlooked but the outlines of the system are universal. The army ranks are mainly those of the United States Army, and the naval ranks those of the United States Navy but with considerable historical background in the (British) Royal Navy, where the system developed in the first place. The interest is mainly in the logical system and how this has developed historically. Nor does it go very deep into military history. This does not include non-commissioned officers, like sergeants and naval petty officers.
The following tables lay out and discuss the basic grades of commissioned military rank. Military Rank, Operations, & Feudal Hierarchy Military Rank
