[QUOTE]Originally posted by Warped1701: [QB] Seigfried; A WO is inbetween the officer and enlisted ranks. Officers are commissioned, while a warrant is not. However, warrants are entitled to salutes from enlisted personnel, just as an officer is. Warrants are given to enlisted personnel with a high degree of skill and capability in their given specialization. A WO or CWO is respected highly for their experience, and capabilities, because they rose all the way through the enlisted rank ladder to reach this rank. The warrant ranks are equivalent to officer ranks. A WO is equal to an Army/Marine Corps/Air Force second lieutenant, or a Navy ensign. The ranks go up to CW4, equivalent to a major, or lieutenant commander. They recieve the same benefits that any officer of that rank is entitled to. WO's are in a class all of their own. As for an ablesman, he/she is the lowest enlisted rank on the totem pole. They are a throwback to the age of sail. The closest comparison is a Navy seamen. Hope this helps. [/QB][/QUOTE]
