It doesn't take Einstein to see where you are going! When you reach the top (which is a LONG way off) you will be given the option to choose your own custom rank. The custom rank will be created and it is yours, nobody else will have that rank so get your thinking caps on trying to think of the rank YOU want

So where does Senior command Course fit into this then? And are you saying that WO2's aren't necessarily bandmasters? Is there a separate ladder for 'A streamers'? And where does the B3, B2 and B1's fit in here?

(hehe)
ZedHorn

just had a valid thought..... shock horror!

shouldn't we have 'special' volly ranks or are we just assumed as equals..
General Melchett

Why, are you 'speshul' Zed?
ZedHorn

General Melchett

ZedHorn

wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

we are all equal but some are more equal than others.
Errol

I am so equal that nobody can better me
Michael Thompson

I'm just as equal and I'm not even a Major.
But I do have a 65 piece band.
Does that make me more equal than some?
or am I as equal as others?
Albeit, I feel I'm just as equal as everyone.
It doesn't matter, we are all equal as each other as
we are all part of the RMB brotherhood (sisterhood, for the girls)
Sorry that should all read RMB personhood.

Jim, you only need to pass your B2's to have your own band.
There is no discrimination on that front.
Errol

Tommo, you are definately equal, in fact I shall call you Norm.
