[QUOTE]Originally posted by Woodside Kid: [QB] [QUOTE] I follow a lot of military history and parlance, but im still not clear on what it means to go from 'warrant officer' (like obriens hollow pip indicated) to a master chief (which his chevrons work out to in most peoples reasoning) or if thats even likely.. anyone know? [/QUOTE] That would be a demotion. A warrant officer is superior in grade to any enlisted man. He or she doesn't have the rights and responsibilities of a commissioned officer (and therefore is junior to an ensign or 2nd lieutenant), but the warrant officer still receives a salute from enlisted personnel. To throw another problem into the mix, consider this: O'Brien was tactical officer under Captain Maxwell. That would be a strange position for a chief to have, especially since a Nebula-class ship is an explorer, Starfleet's top of the line design. [/QB][/QUOTE]
