Non-Commissioned Members Other Ranks From the beginning of the 20th Century, the term Other Ranks was used collectively to refer to any soldier in the Canadian Army not holding officer rank. The term included Warrant Officers, Non-Commissioned Officers, and Men. Men Men was a term used to refer to soldiers not holding rank (in other words, privates, or equivalent). The term was phased out after Unification, possibly because it could be interpreted as gender-specific. Non-Commissioned Members After
Unification, the term Other Ranks was gradually changed in official
usage to Non-Commissioned Members, and included Warrant
Officers, Non-Commissioned Officers, and soldiers formerly known as
Men. |
