Rank Confusion

Post by dartford »

Can someone clarify the rank structure in Australia. Apparently a WO2 is equivalent to a CPO in the RAN and a Flight Sergeant in the RAAF, and all three are senior to a Staff Sergeant. Does that mean that CPOs and FSgts are warrant officers down under.

Bit confusing.

I know there are a couple of people round here who live in Oz. they might know.

Three and a Crown is the same as far as I am aware, are the same. CPO's instead of wearing stripes wear three brass buttons on each cuff.

When it comes down to whos senior.........Who Cares who wins! Their in charge and you do what your told. Be you are C/Sgt, S/Sgt, F/Sgt, CPO.

It's all do do with being in charge. They make life work After the Pigs suggest what the troops should do. :D :roll: :D :roll: :D
