Sh1~~Ing the Honour Dominion and Colonial Affairs .2,. 5, 40 _ No-!.-l SH1~~ING THE HONOUR In order that Canada's non-pGPmancnt active militia may share the honour of partici:-Qating in tho national war effort, its uni ts will be grouped with tho Active Service, Force to s~pply overseas reinforcements. Infantry regiments will in conse quence be territorially grouped, but the non-permanent units will continue to be known by their existing titles. This scheme, as time goes on, will enable members of those units which have not been mobilised to serve overseas. Gavalry uni ts will reinfoI'ce the divisional cavalry if and when it is despatched, and will me~time provide reinforcements for the infantry batt alions from their territorial areas. A similar procedure will be followed with artillery and other units.

  • Australian Defence Force Ranks
    Australian Defence Force ranks The Australian Defence Force's (ADF) ranks of officers and enlisted personnel in each of its three service branches of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), the Australian Army, and the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) inherited their rank structures from their British counterparts. The insignia used to identify these ranks are also generally similar to those used in the British Armed Forces. The following tables show the "equivalent rank and classifications" for the three services, as defined in the ADF Pay and Conditions Manual.[1] "Equivalent rank" means the corresponding rank set out under Regulation 8 of the Defence Force Regulations 1952.[2] Contents Commissioned officer ranks Warrant officer ranks Non-commissioned officer ranks Other ranks Insignia Commissioned officers Enlisted See also Notes References External links Commissioned officer ranks NATO Aus/US Code Code Navy Army RAAF Flag/General/Air Officers[1][3] OF-10 O-11[a] Admiral of the fleet Field marshal Marshal of the RAAF OF-9 O-10[b] Admiral General Air chief marshal OF-8 O-9[c] Vice admiral Lieutenant general Air marshal OF-7 O-8 Rear admiral Major general Air vice marshal OF-6 O-7[d] — — Air commodore Senior officers OF-6 O-7[d] Commodore Brigadier — OF-5 O-6[d] Captain (RAN) Colonel Group captain OF-4 O-5[d] Commander Lieutenant colonel Wing commander OF-3 O-4[d] Lieutenant commander Major Squadron leader Junior officers OF-2 O-3[d] Lieutenant Captain (Army) Flight lieutenant OF-1 O-2 Sub lieutenant Lieutenant Flying officer OF-1 O-1 Acting
