Guards junior sergeant. Military ranks
Today I will tell how to get military rank in the army.
Initially, you will be a private, then there is a corporal, and after the corporal, a junior sergeant, a sergeant and a senior sergeant follow. You may not hope for more, but this is not certain, since a sergeant and a senior sergeant are already very difficult to get in the army. Let's sort it out in order and start, of course, with the military rank of private.

- How to correctly (who in the subject will understand what it is about)
What military ranks can a conscripted soldier achieve?
I would also like to remind you that in addition to the army, we also have the Navy, where military ranks differ from land ones, namely:
Assignment of the military rank of private
The initial military rank in the army is private. An ordinary soldier is an ordinary soldier who serves in the army and does not stand out in any way. This title is punched in your military ID for another collection point where are you from, and the date of awarding the rank of private is the date of your dismissal from military service. Ordinary soldiers have clean shoulder straps, and, as they say, "clean shoulder straps - a clear conscience." There is nothing more to say about the military rank of private.
Assignment of the military rank of corporal
Let's talk about the next military rank - corporal, the so-called most trained soldier. As they say, “it’s better to have a daughter of a prostitute than a son of a corporal,” I don’t know why this title is so disliked, but according to one of numerous versions it is related to tsarist Russia, where corporals at the front were placed in the first line, and, accordingly, they died first.
How to get the rank of corporal? There is a so-called ShDS (regular-official list) - "staff". It is in every company. In order to receive this rank, you need to stand in the corresponding military position. That is, your position in this "staff" should correspond to your rank.
A corporal can be assigned to any soldier, for example, you will be by position, and the senior driver should have the rank of corporal.
Assignment of the military rank of junior sergeant, sergeant
Military ranks sergeants and foremen
Next comes the rank of junior sergeant. Let's think, do you need it? A junior sergeant is usually a soldier who knows the regulations, who knows how and wants to lead personnel, who is respected in the military team, not only by soldiers, but also by command. He may already be a squad leader. The squad leader is the soldier who will have . The squad leader must know everything about each soldier from his squad. And also skillfully lead them.
The direct chief of the squad leader will be the deputy platoon commander (zamkomplatoon) - this is the same junior sergeant or sergeant who will lead the whole platoon.
That is, there is a chain of military personnel, namely: private, corporal, junior sergeant and sergeant. Usually the castle platoon is a junior sergeant or sergeant, the squad leader is a corporal, and ordinary soldiers are just in different platoons.
There is another method for obtaining a military rank. Let's say you approach your company commander and say that after the army you want to serve in the police or other power structures and the rank of junior sergeant will come in handy to make it easier for you to move on. Perhaps this will be enough to give you the military rank of junior sergeant (provided that you really deserve it).
The third option for conferring a military rank
Let's say - on February 23 or May 9, usually regular and extraordinary military ranks are assigned on these holidays, and you can accordingly fall under this topic.
How else can you get a rank in the army
This is when the old conscription retired, and vacancies for military positions were vacated, for which the state provides for the military ranks of a corporal or junior sergeant. And, since there will be no castle platoon commanders and squad commanders, any worthy soldier can be appointed to this position with the assignment of the next military rank.
Also, the rank of junior sergeant can be given for some merit, but this is very rare. So let's consider: a private is a soldier who simply serves in the army. The corporal is the same soldier, but no longer a soldier and not yet a junior sergeant. Next comes the junior sergeant, who leads the squad and the sergeant, who may already be in charge of a whole platoon. But not all soldiers are given a sergeant. There will be only two or three of them in the company.
Conclusion: if you want to run around at night on the business of a platoon or squad, fill out various documentation, monitor a whole platoon, get a “stick” for them, etc., then you can become a junior sergeant. And if you just want to quietly serve in the army, then be a private.
As they say, everything is in your hands and actually do it so that you given a military rank not so difficult

According to current regulation is assigned to the best senior sergeants who have served in sergeant positions for at least 6 months and are appointed to positions for which the states provide for the rank of foreman, as well as to positively attested senior sergeants when they are transferred to the reserve.

Since 1981, the rank of senior warrant officer has also been introduced.
Military rank represents not only a certain position of one soldier to other soldiers, but also a specific number of obligations. Therefore, the higher the military rank, the more duties a soldier has. Those who enter the military often ask the question of how to get a junior sergeant in the army. This issue needs to be dealt with in more detail.
How military ranks are awarded
A certain rank in the army, including junior sergeant, occurs according to the corresponding hierarchy. Initially, a soldier who entered the service is called a private. After that, after some time, the soldier is awarded the rank of corporal. After that come the sergeants:
- rank of junior sergeant;
- the rank of sergeant;
- rank of senior sergeant.
A soldier cannot apply for higher positions in the army, since it is quite difficult to even get the rank of sergeant or senior sergeant in the army. It must be initially understood that in our country the troops are divided into land, air and sea, as a result of which the ranks will differ. The following ship ranks correspond to the ranks of the ground forces:
- private - sailor;
- corporal - senior sailor;
- junior sergeant - foreman of the 2nd magnitude;
- sergeant - foreman of the 1st magnitude;
- senior sergeant - chief foreman;
- foreman - chief ship foreman.
junior ranks
If we talk about the rank of private, then this is the lowest step in the service. It is written in the relevant document when the conscript soldier enlisted in the army. It is this day that can be considered the day when he is mobilized, that is, exactly one year later. Shoulder straps of a soldier with this rank do not have distinctive signs.
The rank of corporal is already a step higher than the private. If a military man wants to receive this rank, he needs to be in the appropriate military position, which would correspond to the rank that the soldier has today.

As a rule, almost any soldier is able to get the rank of corporal. At the same time, according to his position, he may have a certain position, for example, a senior driver. For all people in a similar position, it is mandatory to have this title.
ml. the sergeant is a soldier who knows the military regulations very well, he has leadership and management skills, he is always ready to competently and responsibly lead the staff entrusted to him. As a rule, this soldier is respected not only by his peers, but also by the commanding staff. The junior sergeant is able to command a full-fledged squad, which is in his charge at the time of awarding this rank. The duties of a junior sergeant include, without fail, knowing everything that happens in his department, and about each soldier individually, as well as being able to competently manage his subordinates.
The shoulder straps of a sergeant ml have two parallel stripes of small width (in comparison with the strip of a senior sergeant). The direct superior of the junior sergeant is the platoon leader. As a rule, the platoon leader also has the rank of junior sergeant, or already a sergeant, but he is the most senior figure for the reason that he has a platoon at his disposal. Also, on the shoulder straps of a junior sergeant, an abbreviation of the troops in which he serves can be located.
Obtaining a specific title can be done in another way. For example, a conscript can calmly approach an elder and say that after serving in the army he intends to go to serve in government agencies, for example, in the police. After that, a soldier can tell a senior in rank that he needs to get the rank of junior sergeant, since it can play a decisive role in his future service.
In the future, he can receive a number of orders, by completing which he will be able to prove that he is worthy of this title. Or if the soldier had already shown his brightest features, showed his industriousness and positive attitude to his comrades, the readiness to always come to their rescue, then he may later receive the rank of junior sergeant, since he has already proved that he is worthy to wear his shoulder straps.

There is another option for obtaining the military rank of junior sergeant. Often, on the days of the biggest holidays for soldiers (May 9, February 23), extraordinary ranks can be assigned to them. Therefore, these days are an excellent opportunity to rise to a higher level in the above hierarchy.
Other ways to get ranks in the army
As a rule, others come to replace one, that is, if the former military personnel resigned or went to the reserve, then new soldiers who are one step lower are taken to the vacant places. For the reason that there are no longer platoon commanders or squad commanders, any soldier who proves that he is worthy of a higher military rank can be promoted and simultaneously appointed to one of these positions.
They can also be promoted to junior sergeant without the condition of dismissal of a soldier who previously held this position, this can also be done for any merit to Russian army. However, there are very few such cases, and often they do not do so. At the same time, a sergeant or junior sergeant is not given so often, since it is necessary to appoint them to a certain position, either as a platoon commander or squad leader.
The fact is that a company cannot have more than two or three commanders, so if a soldier has set himself the task of becoming a junior sergeant or sergeant, he will need to be patient.
In addition to the commander of a squad or platoon, a junior sergeant is able to command a tank or even a combat vehicle. If a soldier is very distinguished in carrying out his military duties, he can be given the rank of junior sergeant if he already has the rank of corporal, and he is fired as a reserve. At the same time, the corporal should not be in a military position.
Before receiving the military rank of junior sergeant, a soldier must pass, respectively, military service in the guards military unit. In addition, to the military rank of a soldier who is in military service, having some kind of registration specialty, words are added that correspond to his profile. For example, a corporal of justice or a junior sergeant of the medical service.
Ranks in the Russian army is a topic that I could understand only thanks to my military service. I remember how at the lessons of life safety the teacher forced all the guys to learn them by heart, but even after a long cramming, only empty sounds were put off in my head.
Now I have the opportunity to compare these words with real people whom I meet around. Thanks to this, I was able to structure this knowledge very simply and intelligibly so that each of you, dear readers, could easily and for a long time remember what soldiers sometimes take a whole week to do ...
What are the ranks in the Russian army
As you already understood, before joining the army, I had almost no understanding of military ranks. Knew only the basics. The service made me learn them by heart so that I could easily determine who I was addressing or, conversely, who was addressing me.
As always in such articles, I want to start by defining the main concept. Let's deal with what are the ranks in the Russian army.
In our country, two types of military ranks of military personnel have been established - military and shipborne.
Ship military ranks are assigned to sailors:
- surface and submarine forces of the Navy;
- maritime military units internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia;
- Coast Guard of the Border Service of the FSB of Russia.
Military military ranks are assigned to other military personnel serving in the military:
- Russian Emergency Situations Ministry;
- the Federal Security Service;
- Foreign Intelligence Service;
- Federal Security Service;
- Internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation;
- other troops, military formations and bodies.
Excellent. Understood the concepts. Now let's go up. From lesser rank to the highest. What is their hierarchy?
Non-commissioned ranks in the army
- Private ~ Sailor.
- Corporal ~ Senior sailor.
- Junior sergeant ~ Petty officer of the second article.
- Sergeant ~ Petty Officer of the first article.
- Senior Sergeant ~ Chief Petty Officer.
- Foreman ~ Chief ship foreman.
- Ensign ~ Midshipman.
- Senior warrant officer ~ Senior midshipman.
What did you think that's all? What are all the ranks in our army? No, my friends. The most interesting thing is ahead - the officer corps. It is divided into several parts:
- Junior officers.
- Senior officers.
- Senior officer corps.
Officer ranks in the army
Military rank ~ Ship rank.
- Second Lieutenant ~ Second Lieutenant
- Lieutenant ~ Lieutenant.
- Senior Lieutenant ~ Senior Lieutenant.
- Captain ~ Lieutenant Commander.
It was a junior officer. Now let's move on to the older one.
- Major ~ Captain 3rd rank.
- Lieutenant colonel ~ Captain 2nd rank.
- Colonel ~ Captain 1st rank.
And finally, the senior officers.
- Major General ~ Rear Admiral.
- Lieutenant General ~ Vice Admiral.
- Colonel General ~ Admiral.
- General of the Army ~ Admiral of the Fleet.
- Marshal of the Russian Federation ~ There are no analogues.
As you can see, the number of ship ranks is exactly one less than the number of military ranks. But what!
OK then. We figured out the titles and their order. How now to distinguish between them? And for this, dear readers, people came up with shoulder straps and sleeve insignia (the latter - only for ship ranks).
It is them that we will now analyze. First - in words, then - graphically.
Shoulder straps
- Soldiers and sailors
On shoulder straps they do not have any insignia.
- Sergeants and foremen
They have insignia in the form of cloth galloons - stripes. In the army, these stripes are called "snot".
- Ensigns and midshipmen
They have insignia in the form of small stars arranged vertically. Shoulder straps are similar to officer's, but without gaps and may have edges (for more details, see the pictures below).
- junior officers
One vertically located strip - clearance. Asterisks metal, small (13 mm).
- Senior officers
Two gaps and large metal stars (20 mm).
- Senior officer corps
Large embroidered stars (22 mm) placed vertically, no gaps.
- General of the Army, Admiral of the Navy
One large embroidered star with a diameter of 40 mm.
- Marshal of the Russian Federation
It has one very large embroidered star (40 mm) against the background of radially diverging silver rays forming a pentagon, and the coat of arms of Russia (without a heraldic shield).
For those who find it difficult to perceive the text and just to consolidate the information received, I suggest taking a look at the pictures corresponding to the above.

The next point of our analysis is faces. Those people who lead our army.
First of all, of course, I want to name the Supreme Commander-in-Chief - the President of the Russian Federation.
Supreme Commander - President of the Russian Federation
The Supreme Commander-in-Chief is not a title, but a position. The only position that allows you to lead the Marshal of the Russian Federation.
Interesting fact that Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin ended his service in the FSB with the rank of colonel, and his current position allows him to lead representatives of the highest officer ranks.
Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation
Please note that Sergei Kuzhugetovich bears the rank and shoulder straps of an army general.
The Minister of Defense combines the commander and ground forces, and Navy. That is why there is no higher rank in the Navy than Admiral of the Fleet.
By the way. Which of you, friends, noticed that I began to write such high ranks as admiral and marshal with small letters? Think it's a mistake? Forced to disappoint you. Not! Why? Read the next part of the article.
Interesting facts about ranks in the army
- To the military ranks of military personnel guards units the prefix "guard" is used (for example, "guard major").
- In relation to the military personnel of the legal and medical services, the words "justice", "medical service" are added, respectively.

- Military personnel studying in a military educational institution of vocational education are called: those who do not have the military rank of officers - cadets, and those who have a military rank - listeners.
- Citizens who did not have a military rank before entering a military educational institution or who had the military rank of a sailor or soldier are assigned the military rank of cadet upon admission to study. Other military ranks assigned before entering a military educational institution of vocational education are retained.
- Military ranks are given after the length of service of the required time and for personal merit. If everything is clear with merit, then let's figure out how much time it takes to serve in order to reach the desired rank.

- private, sailor - five months;
- junior sergeant, foreman of the 2nd article - one year;

- lieutenant - three years;
- senior lieutenant - three years;
- captain, captain-lieutenant - four years;
- Major, captain of the 3rd rank - four years;
- lieutenant colonel, captain of the 2nd rank - five years.
Further - for 5 years.
An important point. The title can only be obtained if there is a suitable position in the unit. About positions and what ranks you can reach in a particular position, in the next article.
- The ranks of foreman and chief ship foreman have not been awarded since 2012. The documents still exist.
- All military ranks - from private to marshal of the Russian Federation are written with a small letter.
- The rank of major is higher than the rank of lieutenant, but major general< генерал-лейтенант.
- The highest rank that can be obtained for a year of military service now is sergeant.
Dear readers. I hope that while reading this short but very important article, you have formed an understanding of what ranks are in our army, and in what order they are located.
Petrovsky times with a corporal's halberd in a gray homespun caftan, a kalamenkov camisole with horn buttons and the same pants.
Rank of junior sergeant is one of the oldest. For the first time, its analogue arose in the archery army. True, then this title was called foreman and coincided with the position of the same name as the commander of the smallest unit. With the advent of regiments of a foreign system, the foremen who served in it began to be called in the Western manner corporals. Officially, this rank was introduced in 1647. Corporal commanded a corporal - an analogue of the previous ten or the current branch.
The rights and obligations of the Russian corporal were first set out in the appendix to the military charter of Peter the Great, called "Exercises, preparation for the march, ranks and positions of regimental ranks. In accordance with this charter of 1716 corporal “... it is appropriate about all your soldiers, in the morning and in the evening, I know to be, and if any of them incline to an evil life, they should be wary of such things and forbid in every possible way and not at all allow playing cards and other grains; and if anyone disobeys him, it is fitting for him to tell the sergeant about it. He stands at his corporality in the front rank on the right side " .
In the times of Peter the Great, the rank of corporal initially occupied an intermediate position between the corporal and ensign, but since 1722 the rank of furier became the next rank of corporal, and the ensign moved two ranks higher. At the same time, the rank of corporal was also abolished, and only below the corporal remained Private. The corporal's insignia was the halberd worn by him with a rounded chopping surface. However, in combat conditions, corporals took an ordinary gun instead. Out of order corporal carried a bone-headed stick, which the soldiers should have been more afraid of than an enemy bullet.
In the life campaign that existed in 1741-1762 rank of corporal matched the captain. This is not surprising, since lieutenants served as privates in the life campaign.
During the time of Paul I, the rank of corporal was replaced by the rank of junior non-commissioned officer, however, for a long time the bearers of this title were called corporals. Senior non-commissioned officer then it did not exist yet and the next rank again became the rank of ensign.
This situation lasted until 1827, when the ensign became the highest of the non-commissioned officer ranks, again moving up two steps. Then a dressed non-commissioned officer stood over the former corporal, and the junior non-commissioned officer began to be called simply a non-commissioned officer. At the same time, the rank of corporal was introduced, which supported non-commissioned officer from below.

On April 8, 1843, non-commissioned officers received two tabs on the shoulder straps . tabs had 11.125 mm thickness and were made of white boson.
In 1884 separated non-commissioned officer renamed senior non-commissioned officer, and, accordingly, the non-commissioned officer became known as the junior non-commissioned officer. This rank remained until 1917, and in the white armies until the end of their existence.
True, in the Army of the Siberian government and in People's Army Komuch this rank, like other pre-revolutionary ones, was preserved, but completely different insignia corresponded to it. It was preserved both among Denikinists and in the troops of Yudenich, but there its designation was traditionally Russian.
In the Red Army, already in January 1919, the category of a separated commander appeared, denoted by a red cloth sleeve triangle. In 1922, this triangle moved to the sleeve valve, and from October 2, 1924 - to buttonholes arr. 1924.
At the same time, one triangle went not to the squad leader, but to his deputy, who could also be the commander of a link - an even smaller unit than the squad. Commander the same branch received two triangles. True, and commander departments, and his deputy belonged to the same service category K1.
In accordance with the Order of NPO No. 176 of December 3, 1935, personal categories were introduced in the Red Army instead of service categories. military ranks. The deputy squad leader, who corresponded to the previous and later corporal, was abolished along with the units as tactical units, and now commander offices began to wear in buttonholes arr. 1935 in one triangle.
In parallel with the all-army in 1935-37. there was a peculiar system of insignia of the NKVD, which included internal and border troops. There, two squares were used to designate the rank of a separated commander.

On December 2, 1940, the owner of one triangle became known as a junior sergeant (See: Insignia Red Army 1940-43). He still commanded a squad, gun crew or tank crew, but more often these functions were performed by sergeants, since platoons in Red Army commanded by lieutenants or junior lieutenants.
In January 1943, one hundred years after the introduction of tsarist army non-commissioned officer badges, junior sergeants, along with the entire Red Army, received shoulder straps sample of 1943, on which, like the pre-revolutionary junior non-commissioned officers, there were two stripes.
In contrast to pre-revolutionary times, the color of the epaulette now corresponded not to the regiment number, but to the type of troops. The edging also mattered.
Since the end of 1973, according to Article 165 of the Order of the Minister of Defense of the USSR No. 250 of November 1, 1973, “On shoulder straps for the parade uniform of sergeants and conscripts Soviet army at a distance of 15 mm from the lower edge of the shoulder strap, metal letters "CA" 32 mm high are placed, and on colored shoulder straps to the overcoat and other items of uniform, at a distance of 25 mm from the lower edge of the shoulder strap, the letters "SA" 25 mm high are placed. In internal troops sergeants and foremen wore the letters "BB", in the border guards - "PV", and in the state security troops - "GB", and only one 11th Separate Cavalry Regiment had three letters on shoulder straps - "OKP".
