First look

I looked on the Internet and searched for military rankings. After looking at a few websites, I found one that introduced what military rankings were. If you take a look at http://www.defenselink.mil/specials/insignias/index.html this will take you to the main "home" page to get you a brief introduction of what they believe military rankings are. There are so many things that come into a ranking. I learned about how the rankings are different than the classes (such as class E9-E13 or W-2 and O-5). The E stands for enlisted while they number stands for the pay grade. E-1 through E-3 are all some sort of privates. I am still looking at what each name means and stands for. My next source will probably be my sister's boyfriend, because he is in the Army and I believe he is a Sergeant. I will post another in a few days!

I just looked at the link and it was very interesting. I didn't know there that many ranks, different names, and opportunities.
