Good job pinky! ;)
I believe in Sweden they had a rank called "Filthy".
Really nice work :)
To fix you there the UK Arty ranks were Recruit,Cannoneer,Lance Bombardier(LCpl),Bombardier(Cpl),Battery Serjeant etc...

Nice thread! Glad to see that someone has time to make this :)
Marines have the same rank as the infantry. Don't you mean naval ranks?
Good work!Should really help people out :D
Maybe add the ranks of the colourbearers?
Premier port-aigle for the French, with the deuxieme and troiseme being sergeants (or sergeant-majors, can't recall) who had the task to protect the premier (a second lieutenant who carried the eagle).
Vaandrig (equalivent of ensign) for the Dutch.

Where abouts should the French rank be in the order? :P, I'll add the Dutch one :D
The problem isn't with the translation, but what rank they represent. For the rank of adjudant-majoor, there's no proper english or french translation.
Some more stuff :, the rank of 'onder-luitenant' is complete rubbish - it should be 'tweede luitenant', translated as 2nd lieutenant.
The rank of sergeant-majoor is should also be translated as (company) sergeant-major.
The Dutch name of a sergeant of the artillery should be 'sergeant', not wachtmeester (cos thats a cav rank).
And finally, I have to question the ranks of 'wachtmeester' and 'ritmeester'. They do exist now, but every time I read something on Dutch cavalry they talk about sergeants and captains. That doesn't prove or disaprove anything though, I just thought it was worth mentioning
I like how the Italians have either O or E at the end of every rank :D
Filthy ScroungersI believe in Sweden they had a rank called "Filthy".
I believe they were actually called "Scroungers"
I wish to register twocomplaints!
First of all, the UK cavalry NCO-ranks should be the same as for the infantry, the only ones to use Corporal of Horse and the variations thereof were the household cavalry.
Since Pinky quit, I could make a new post with the opdated ranking system, if you guys want to?I say go for it if you want.
