Navy Officers Ranks

Ensign

The rank of Ensign is the first rank a newly commissioned officer will be given. Normally, Ensigns are in training for their various specializations, either on planetary based schools, or serving on warships. On ships, Ensigns are usually in charge of a division of crewmembers, such as Electrical Division, Torpedo Division, etc. The senior Ensign is usually referred to as the "Bull Ensign" as both a sign of his growing knowledge, and as a tongue in cheek joke.


Lieutenant Junior Grade

LTjg's normally serve as division officers onboard warships. Often standing watch in the engineering spaces, LTjgs are usually in training to qualify to conn the ship they are serving on. Often senior Jgs will have completed this, which could result in a LTjg being in charge of a major warship during some hours of operation, however, the CO is almost always in his underway cabin, which is normally adjacent to the control room.


Lieutenant

LTs serve as either senior division officers on large warships, or can even be department heads on small warships (Weapons Officer, Navigator, Engineering Officer), often rotating back to planetary bases for advanced training. In the case of extremely small ships, often the Commanding Officer will be a LT.


Lieutenant Commander

LCDR's usually serve as department heads on large warships, XO's on medium to large warships, and CO's of smaller warships. LCDR's often have a reputation for being extremely strict, this is due to most XO's in the fleet being of LCDR rank, and the XO's role in shipwide discipline.


Commander

Often in command of major warships, CDRs are the highest rank usually entrusted with ships to be used on independent operations. On extremely large waships, the XO will be a CDR. Often this is the highest rank a naval offier will reach, as command opportunities above CDR are mostly of the staff variety, which often does not appeal to officers who are fresh off being the master of a vessel.


Captain

The highest non-flag rank, most Captain's are staff officers serving on squadron or fleet support. The rare few that are entrusted with major warship commands are usually envied by the staff captains. Enlisted men's nicknames for staff captains range from the mildly insulting to the downright scatalogical.


Commodore

A one star flag rank, Commodores are the lowest ranking officers entrusted with an operational squadron.


Rear Admiral

Two star flag rank, the rank of Rear Admiral is usually given to an experienced Squadron Commander.


Vice Admiral

Three Star flag rank, the rank of Vice Admiral is usually given to a senior battlegroup/squadron commander, or for a junior Fleet Commander.


Admiral

A four star rank, the rank of Admiral is given to a veteran Fleet Commander.


Fleet Admiral

Five star Admiral, given to only the most outstanding and dedicated Fleet Commanders.


Marshal

The Title of "Marshal of the Armies of Tarentum", or alternatively "Marshal" or "Field Marshal", is a military distinction of Tarentum, and not a rank. As one of the members of Tarentum's cabinet, assigned to assist the Prince, the Marshal represents the military. In general, the Marshal functions as the supreme commander of military forces, the wartime adviser of the Prince.

The distinction is awarded to persons for exceptional service to Tarentum and the Crown. The office is vacated upon the retirement of the current Marshal from this post, at which point the Prince may appoint a new Marshal. Alternately, the Prince may wait until a Marshal needs to be appointed, in which case, the duties of the Marshal were split between the Naval and Army Commanders. Retired Marshals retain their title. The symbol of the Marshal is a baton, conferred upon him by the Sith King or the Prince. Each baton is crafted to suit the specifications and specific designs of the bearer.

The Last Marshal was Maxamillian von Oberst-Tarentae.

High Command

Currently, the military is ruled by a triumverant called "Tarentum High Command" which are represented by the Leaders of the Tarentum Naval Fleet the newly seperated service of the Tarentum Starfighter Corps and coverted Army the Tarentum Legionary Corps. Additionaly the AED serves as the Dark Prince's eyes and ears and balance on the High Command ensuring no military Coup d'état may take place as he has commissioned the High Command in leading the Tarenti Restoration reorganizing many facets of military and Tarenti life giving them all powers vested with in to lead a new Tarenti generation.
