» Rank Structure |
Our Chain of Command is based on the British Army's format. We do offer positions to people who have proven they have leadership abilities and know the elements that we require people to know as part of our unit. However, leadership positions are limited within the unit so please don't join with the expectation of going up the ranks quickly.
Below are a list of the ranks that the 16AA currently use within their unit structure.
|
Recruit - RCT
You cant become part of the best without some training, recruits are troopers-to-be. In the actual army it would mean doing push-ups and pull-ups till you faint, here it means that you need to fit in. Basically you have to gain some knowledge on how we operate (note: most of which you will learn as you play).

Private - PTE
The majority of the 16 Air Assault Brigade are privates - they're the building block of the unit; Privates have no responsibilities beyond knowing what they're doing when in game. Sometimes experienced Privates will be asked to take on leadership roles in games when NCOs are killed or none are present.
Note, the rank image to the left shows a bayonet at the top to symbolise the private being part of the infantry in the 16AA. There are also different symbols to denote medic, pilot and gunner roles within the unit too.

Lance Corporal - LCPL
A most junior NCOs, most commonly held by a Second-in-Command (2ic) of a section. The Lance-Corporal is in charge of the delta fire team when the section is split up. They need to be able to command a section effectively when called upon if their section commander becomes a casualty.

Corporal - CPL
Corporals are often found in charge of a section of eight people. The corporal will command charlie fire team when the section is split into fire teams (charlie, led by the corporal, and delta, led by the lance-corporal) Corporals are often described as the "backbone" of the British Army. They are responsible for the section as a whole, from organising training to making tactical decisions in the field.

Sergeant - SGT
This is the first of the Senior NCO Position, normally in the role of a Platoon Sergeant. Their main duties are to liaise between the CO and Section Leaders/Troops, be available for members of the unit to approach with problem/ideas for the bettering of the unit and to provide direction for the unit.
On the battlefield they normally move between the sections making sure everything is running smoothly - and being ready to take over command of the platoon should anything happen to the Platoon Leader.
In addition to the above the Platoon Sergeant looks after organisation of the platoon training, deals with applicants and general forum/unit admin.
