Introduction

I am a college student looking into military/army rankings. I am not big into history or politics or even the war "stuff" on television, but I have always been interested in what the lingo is. My sister has had 3 boyfriends that have been involved in some branch of the military and she has caught onto what the language means. I have tried to understand, but I either don't have the patience or I just get frustrated because I get confused. I will be looking on the Internet, books, magazines, news and asking individuals questions about rankings and just army in general. Classmates or outsiders can respond, comment, suggest or question on my blog page. I want to know more about this topic just because I am not real familiar with everything involved and how things work and so on.
