| (documentation USWarrantOfficerRank EnglishLanguage "In the United States military, a warrant officer was originally, and strictly, a highly skilled, single_track specialty officer. But as many chief warrant officers assume positions as officer in charge or department head, along with the high number of bachelor's and master's degrees held within the community, their contribution and expertise as a community is ever_increasing. There are no 'warrant officers' per se in the U.S. Navy, but rather the term 'chief warrant officer' is correct. In the U.S. Navy, a sailor must be in one of the top three enlisted ranks to be eligible to become a Chief Warrant Officer. In the U.S. Army, a person can progress to the warrant officer rank at a grade lower than E-7 thus having a longer career and greater opportunity to serve and grow. In the U.S. Marine Corps, after serving at least eight years of enlisted service, and reaching the grade of E-5 (sergeant), an enlisted Marine can apply for the Warrant Officer program. Upon the initial appointment to WO1 a warrant is given by the secretary of the service, and upon promotion to chief warrant officer (CW2 and above) they are commissioned by the President of the United States, take the same oath and receive the same commission and charges as commissioned officers, thus deriving their authority from the same source.") | Military.kif 673-691 | |
