SFMC Rank and Rate Guide

The SFMC follows a slightly different rank structure than their naval counterparts. Below is a guide to the ransk and rates of the SFMC, as well as a comparison to equivalent naval ransk and rates.

Both the Starfleet Navy and the Starfleet Marine Corps use the same insignia to represent their officer and enlisted grades; however, the Marines use the traditional names for their grades just as the navy does, with only one exception, noted below.


Officers of the Star Fleet Marine Corps

General (O-10) GENERAL (O-10)- equavalent to Naval Admiral

Lieutenant General (O-9) LIEUTENANT GENERAL (O-9)- equavalent to Naval Vice Admiral

Major General (O-8) MAJOR GENERAL (O-8)- equavalent to Naval Rear Admiral

Brigadier (O-7) BRIGADIER (O-7)- equavalent to Naval Commodore


Colonel (O-6) COLONEL (O-6)- equavalent to Naval Captain

Lieutenant Colonel (O-5) LIEUTENANT COLONEL (O-5)- equavalent to Naval Commander

Major (O-4) MAJOR (O-4)- equavalent to Naval Lieutenant Commander

Lieutenant Major (O-3) LIEUTENANT MAJOR (O-3)- equavalent to Naval Lieutenant ^

1st Lieutenant (O-2) 1ST LIEUTENANT (O-2)- equavalent to Naval Lieutenant, Junior Grade

2nd Lieutenant (O-1) 2ND LIEUTENANT (O-1)- equavalent to Naval Ensign


^- Since there can only be one ship's captain aboard Starfleet vessels, the traditional Terran Marine rank "Captain" has been replaced by the rank "Lieutenant-Major" to avoid the necessity of the courtesy rank of "Major" to such officers on modern naval vessels. Lieutenant-Major is still company grade, not field grade.

NOTE- The Starfleet Marine Corps do not have warrant officers.

Non-Commissioned Officers of the Star Fleet Marine Corps

Sergeant-Major (E-9) SERGEANT MAJOR (E-9)- equavalent to Naval Master Chief Petty Officer

Master Sergeant (E-8) MASTER SERGEANT (E-8)- equavalent to Naval Senior Chief Petty Officer

Gunnery Sergeant (E-7) GUNNERY SERGEANT (E-7)- equavalent to Naval Chief Petty Officer

Staff Sergeant (E-6) STAFF SERGEANT (E-6)- equavalent to Naval Petty Officer, 1st Class

Sergeant (E-5) SERGEANT (E-5)- equavalent to Naval Petty Officer, 2nd Class

Corporal (E-4) CORPORAL (E-4)- equavalent to Naval Petty Officer, 3rd Class

Lance Corporal (E-3) LANCE CORPORAL (E-3)- equavalent to Naval Crewman

Private, 1st Class (E-2) PRIVATE, 1ST CLASS (E-2)- equavalent to Naval Crewman Apprentice

Private (E-1) PRIVATE (E-1)- equavalent to Naval Crewman Recruit
