[edit] French ranks

Just a little note: if I remember well, the ranks for the troops on foot and on horseback (and units considered descendants of both) are one in golden appearance and the other in silvery appearance. David.Monniaux 06:27, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

Can you give an example? --Cool CatTalk|@ 18:55, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Note: Officer Cadets wear a single thin gold bar on their epaulletes

[edit] Warrant Ranks

The only officer grade WOs with NATO codes WO1-WO5 are those of the United States Armed forces. The Warrant Officers of the other countries listed here should be included in the enlisted rank structure (i.e. NATO 'OR' codes)--LONDON 12:46, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

  • BZZZZT* Wrong! Several countries have warrent officers. Thus the ranks are not exclusive to the US armed forces. --OrbitOne [Talk|Babel] 22:00, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Most countries have Warrant Officers but they are nearly all enlisted ranks (i.e. NATO codes OR8 and OR9)and apart from the US Warrant Ranks shouldn't be listed here--81.145.241.10 16:09, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
