In the American army, gradation ranks differs from the Soviet / Russian system and instead of the usual sergeants and seniors, junior and senior officers with generals, there are the following:

Comissioned Offices, certified bosses. Actually officers in the Russian analogy. They in turn are divided into:

General Offices, the main boss. In the USSR / RF is general
- Field Grade Officers, the authorities of the field category. In the USSR / RF is senior officers
- Compaign Grade Offices, the authorities of the Rotat category. In the USSR / Russian Federation is younger officers

Warrant Offices. The translation is quite the wonder-author of the order. In the USSR / RF is ensign. In the US Air Force, this category is absent at all.

Non-Commissional Offices, not certified bosses. In the USSR / Russian Federation, these are sergeants and elders.

Enlisted, an urgent, serving in general. In the USSR / RF these are ordinary.

In addition, in the US Army there are three more sergeant ranks older than 1 Sergeant: Sergeant Major, Command Sergeant Major and Sergeant Major of the United States Army. But, it is rather the post than the title.

Sergeant Major is considered the head of the entire sergeant composition of one specifically taken part: a separate battalion or regiment, as well as brigades or divisions. In essence, the older battalion or the shelf most often.
Command Sergeant Major performs similar duties, but at the command level, which can be conventionally equated to our military district.
Well, SERGEANT MAJOR OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY performs the same duties at the level of all land forces. In this rank in the ground forces, only one person.

A state that does not have a likely enemy near its borders could build powerful armed forces with the most modern weapons. The number of the personnel of America's army is a few more than a million military personnel (the preparation of which is considered to be a modern specimen for most of the planet armies), as well as almost seven hundred thousand civil servants. In the Ground Forces, they are serving up to five hundred thousand people, up to two hundred thousand in the reserve army and almost four hundred fifty thousand - in the National Guard.

The American army in terms of the level of funds spent on it occupies a leading position on the planet. Thus, the 2016 military budget envisaged to spend more than 607 billion dollars for the needs of the army, which amounted to more than 34% of global military costs. According to independent sources, it is three times more than the defense costs of China and seven times more Russian.

The overall structure of the US Army

The US Army was founded in June 1775 by the decision of the Congress, it was intended for the defense of the young independent state. Modern Armed Forces of America include independent types of Sun:

  • Ground troops;
  • Air Force;
  • Naval forces;
  • Marine Corps (KMP);
  • Coast guard.

Moreover, all, except for coast guard, are directly subordinate to the Minister of Defense, the latter in peacetime is subordinated to the National Security Agency, but during the military situation is also redeemed by the Minister of Defense.

The US Constitution implies the appointment of the President of the American Army by the Commander. He, in turn, in peacetime controls the national armed forces, leading to the civil minister of defense, in whose subordination is the heads of subspecies of the Sun. The heads of ministries are engaged in the acquisition, equipment, organization and supply of the army, and also control the combat training of personnel. The highest military command of the species of the Armed Forces are members of the Joint Committee of Headquarters. The Chairman of this Committee solves the issues of coordinating the activity of everything that is associated with the state management bodies.

The operational subordination of the US armed forces is reduced to the nine joint commands, five of which are formed, based on the geographical principle.

Five combined commands:

  • North American;
  • South and Central American;
  • European;
  • Middle Eastern and Asian;
  • Pacific.

In subordination of the commander of these United Commands, all bodies of the species of the US Armed Forces are located in the zones of their responsibility. The remaining four combined commands do not have its own zones of responsibility.

The combined command includes:

  • Strategic command. Dealing with strategic planning issues, controls strategic nuclear weapons;
  • Command of the training of special operations;
  • Command of preparation of strategic transfer;
  • Command of uniform forces. Engaged in combat training in all types of Sun.

Options of the American Army

The American army is completed voluntarily and is based on a contract basis. American citizens are being taken to serve or living on a permanent basis in the United States of America, which have a residence permit having at least secondary education. The minimum candidate age for military service is 18 years old. However, if you get parental approval, you can go to serve and at one age.

The ultimate age for the passage of valid military service is defined for each species of the American army wax. So, for example, the maximum age may be:

  • Air Force and Coast Guard - 27 years;
  • Marine Corps - 28 years;
  • Naval forces - 34 years;
  • Ground troops - 42 years.

Each contractager signs a service agreement for a period of four to eight years.

National racial

The United States of America is a multinational state. The national composition of the country is presented, except for Europeans, African Americans, Asians and Latin Americans. The same picture is displayed in the construction of the American army.

So, according to information from open sources, in the Armed Forces of America, service is carried:

  • Americans of European origin - 63%;
  • African Americans - 15%;
  • Latin American - 10%;
  • Asians - 4%;
  • Indians and indigenous people of Alaska - 2%;
  • Other from mixed marriages of different - 2%;
  • 4% have not been determined with racial or national affiliation.

It should be noted that the latter group includes those who do not have American citizenship, but has the right to permanent accommodation in the United States. Most of them go to the army, as this greatly simplifies the receipt of American citizenship.

Gender belonging

By sexual sign, American servicemen are divided:

  • Men - 86%;
  • Women - 14%.

For many years it was believed that only officers can be professional military military in the American army. Nevertheless, after the Vietnamese war, in the period of reforming the army at the beginning of the seventies, the status of professional military personnel received the sergeant composition and spare officers.

Mobilization resources

The total number of US population is more than 325 million people. It provides an army extremely large mobilization resources. According to some estimates, Mobryrseurs can be more than one hundred ten million American citizens.

Over four million Americans and Americans reaches annually annually. In addition, the state has at its disposal approximately eight hundred fifty thousand so-called "reservists" of all kinds of troops. Separate genus of troops is the American National Guard formed by the reserve groups created by the army and air force. The total number of national guards in the United States is approximately three hundred fifty thousand servicemen.

Features of the National Guard USA

A feature of the service in the American National Guard is the combination of service and work in a civil specialty. Each year, the National Guard takes about sixty thousand American citizens in its ranks. All prescribed the passage of combat training in the group and individually. There are all forty-eight programs for four hours each, running on weekends throughout the year.

In addition, the National Guardsmen are sent for two weeks camp to participate in command-staff and military exercises together with army compounds. All employers are officially warned that if they try to prevent, the military personnel of the National Guard to fulfill the service-combat mission, they can even expect criminal liability.

In addition to the patriotic senses, Americans motivate various benefits, which are provided by the undergoing service in the National Guard USA:

  • POSSIBILAR FOR PAYMENTS;
  • Gain to pay for treatment;
  • Preferential sale of goods and products in military stores;
  • Refueling flammable on military gas stations (at a price by 50% cheaper than market);
  • Poster to pension;
  • Others.

Features of the US military doctrine

Recently, US military leadership involves the concentration of its resources in five critical areas:

  • Elimination of terrorism and expansion of the OMP;
  • Intelligence service;
  • Preparing for info, including the protection of its informatization and communications systems, as well as the elimination of similar enemy systems;
  • The struggle for military advantages in airspace with focus on the development of unmanned aviation;
  • The development of military-space technologies.

At the same time, the American military doctrine draws attention to the preparation for combat clashes during non-traditional and hybrid conflicts.

Signs of differences of titles
Soldier and Sergeants US Army
2002
(US Army)

Part 1

From the author. The only sources of writing this article were the Army leadership of the US Army AR 670-1 (the appearance and wearing of uniforms and signs of the difference) of the 1992 edition with changes as of June 1999 and the official website of the US Army "Tagd On Line. The Adjutant General Directorate" where all the changes occurring in uniforms and difference signs are promptly published (and not only this). Changes in the signs of differences that have occurred after 1992, if they are not specified in the AR 670-1, taken by the author from this site.
In addition, the author consulted with the Lans-Corporation of the US Marine Corporation Ilya Lagoonov, Major US Army William Snek and the US Army General Dennis Reimer.

Before you start reading the descriptions of the signs of the differences in the titles of the US military, the United States should pay attention to a number of significant moments, without which the reader risks mislead itself.

First of all, the US Armed Forces consist of several basic species. It:
* US Army (US Army). If in Russia, under this term, it is often implied by all types and kind of troops, excluding the navy, and often on the concept of "army"; That applied to the US, the word US ARMY should be translated as "US land forces".
* US Marine Corps (US Marine Corps). If in Russia, the maritime infantry is just one of the auxiliary services of the navy, then in the US, this is a completely independent view of the armed forces.
* Air Force (US Air Force). Basically, this term coincides with Russian, but it includes and what we call the rocket troops of strategic destination.
* US Navy (US NAVY). All as we have, with the exception of the marines.
* Coast Guard (US COAST GUARD). In Russia, this is referred to as the maritime parts of the federal border service. In the US, the land borders with Canada and Mexico protects the police, ordinary police. So, border troops, such as we, in the US, simply no.

All these types of US Armed Forces are much more independent than we. From here and rather significant differences in the rank systems, uniforms and differences signs.

This article will only talk about the signs of the distinction of the US Army (US Army) and only soldiers and sergeants. Marine infantry, aviation, the fleet remain in the future.

Second. The Army in the United States consists of the current and spare components of the army (Active and Reserve Components of the Army), the Army National Guard (Army National Guard), the Army Reserve (USAR). It also also exists, even if not very significant, but still the difference in the signs of differences.

Third. In some cases, the signs of differences reflect not only the title themselves, but also the official position of servicemen, and therefore, with the same rank, the signs of the titles may be different. For example, ordinary soldiers passing initial training wears the icons of the US icons on both sides of the twentiest collar, and finished this training on one side instead of the letters of US wears the enclosure of the order of troops.

Fourth. Signs of differences in the titles of soldiers and sergeants of men in size, places of fastening on uniform and appearance differ from such signs of soldiers and sergeants of women.

Fifth. In the Russian army, the only place of wearing the differences in the titles since 1943 are epaulets. In the US Army, the signs of differences in the titles of soldiers and sergeants, depending on the specific type of uniform, can be worn on the pursuit (or rather, on the flutters, put on epaulets), on the sleeves between the shoulder and the elbow, on one or both sides of the collar, on the heads.

Sixth. In the US Army, the signs of differences in the titles are not divided into parade, casual and field. They are divided into "unacceptable" (nonsubdued) and "muffled" (subdued).
The first are embroidered with a golden or bright thread on the tissue valves of green, blue or white (depending on the color of the uniform) or are metal icons of green, white or blue on a pin with golden churches and arcs.
The second are embroidered with dim yellow thread on black valves or black thread on uniform color valves, or are metal black icons on a pin with dusk-yellow chevronic and arcs.
For each type of uniform, we are prescribed to carry the unacceptable or muted signs of differences.

Seventh. In the documentary images of the soldiers and sergeants of the US Army, which are dated until 2002, the reader can detect deviations from the following. This is due to the fact that some changes in the signs of distinction of this category of servicemen are made quite often (approximately every two or four years). Compared with the periods of World War II, the war in Korea, the War in Vietnam the signs of differences in the titles of soldiers and sergeants changed very significantly.

Eighth. None of the artistic films manufactured by the United States and European countries, which show American servicemen. You will not find reliable signs of the differences in the titles, and the uniform itself, too, with the excluding cases when it is agreed with HQDA (Main Department of the Army Department). Signs are very similar, but not so much to give the basis of the US Army Department to attract carriers of these signs to criminal responsibility for the illegal wearing of military uniform (policeman too), which is prohibited by the federal laws of the country.

Note. The term "Chevron" in recent years has become often used completely wrong. Unfortunately, this mistake has become common not only in soldier's everyday life, but even in documents. Chevron began to call any distortion or bad stripe at all. In reality, Chevron is called a galloon (braid made of metal thread) or Bancon (the same braid, but made of ordinary thread) an angle-shaft in the shape of an angle, converted down or up (as well as their Embroidered or otherwise applied image). For clarity I put this drawing. By the way, modern Russian signs of the difference in sergeants on the pursuit, although they are similar to the chevrons, too, to call it wrong, because. They are made of metal, not from Galun or Bason.

The uniforms of the US Army is not divisible as in Russia to the front-end, undertaking, everyday, field and working. It is divided into three main groups:
1. Digitarian and individual military uniforms (Utility and Selected Organizational Uniforms). This group includes various kinds of special forms (flight, for the crews of combat vehicles, hospital, kitchen, sports, for pregnant women) and what we call the field, and Americans combat uniforms (BDU).
2. Utilities Uniforms (Service Uniforms). These are the species that we call everyday.
3. Former clothing (Dress Uniform). Perhaps this group of forms can be called a parade and branded day. Perhaps the most numerous group of forms. Here and the white uniforms (something type of the weekend for hot summer), and blue uniforms (something type of the parade, shed-day output), and a form for dinners, reception of guests, evening and other high-speed techniques and raws.

It is impossible to describe forms in more detail in this article. A separate series of articles will be written about American uniforms. Therefore, we limit ourselves to the description of the signs of the differences in the titles and instructions on what types of forms as they are located.

Direct signs of differences of titles.

Unlightened signs of differences in the titles of soldiers and sergeants of the first type embroide the golden thread on the plated valves of green, blue or white. These valves (stripes) are then sewn on the uniforms of the corresponding color.
The figure shows the unpretentious signs of the distinction of the servant in the rank of camps (Sergeant).

These dimensions are as follows:
1. Move. Valve width is 76.2 mm. The thickness of each chevron and arc is 7.9 mm., Between each arc and Chevron (except for the lowest chevron and upper arc 4.7 mm. Chevrons and arcs from all sides do not reach the edge of matter by 3.2 mm.
The height of the strip is determined by the number of chevrons and arcs.

2.-in-law. Valve width is 50.8 mm. The thickness of each chevron and arc is 4.7 mm. Between each chevron and each arc of 3.2 mm. Unlike male signs, the lower chevryno and the highest arc between themselves are not closed and the gap of 3.2 mm remains between them. There are no such gaps only on the difference in the difference in the title of "Pryvit Furst Class".

Since 1996, the division of signs of differences on male and female abolished and all signs began to have the same pattern. Their sizes also changed. Unlightened signs of the first type exist from this time two sizes - width of 79.4 mm. (The remaining sizes correspond to male signs), and 57 mm. (The remaining sizes correspond to female signs). Larger signs prescribed to wear men smaller women. In the figure, signs of both sizes are identical.

Permissible signs of differences in the titles of this type (Chevrons and arcs) to embroider directly on the uniform. Usually these signs are attached on the sleeves above the elbow.

Unfortunate signs of the differences of the ranks of the second typesignificantly smaller in size, made of yellow shiny metal (copper), chevrons and arcs brilliant golden color protrude above the background, and the background is poured with white, green or blue shiny enamel. These signs are attached to clothing (usually to collars of certain types of uniforms and on hats) with the help of clamps (two wires soldered from the back side of the sign, like on Russian asterisks). Width of the metal sign 23.8 mm. The width of each chevron and arc 2.38 mm., Basels between them are 1.58 mm.
In certain cases, the signs of this type are allowed to embroider directly on clothing or on the plating valve coinciding in color with clothing and then this valve sews to clothing. These signs are united for men and women. There is also a kind of signs of this type, which represents these signs embroidered with golden threads on black and black fabrics. These fauges are then put on the epaulets of the nonstract Military clothing species.

Muffled signsit is identical to the size and drawing of the unacceptable signs of the second type, but the chevrons and arcs on the metal signs are dim matte yellow, and the gaps between them are matte black. These signs can also be sewn directly on clothing with black threads or on the plants of the uniform color. Such signs are usually worn on combat uniforms and some types of special ricoboche uniform. These are single signs for men and women.

It should be noted that in the US military rank system there is a concept of Pay Grades, which can be translated quite exactly as the "tariff category". In the US Army, three senior sergeants have the same pay grades - E9. Those. How would they be equal to each other. However, in this case, the signs of differences reflect not only the title as such, but also the service position of sergeant.

Sergeant Major of The United States Army in the US Army There is always one only. He is in the Pentagon and is on the one hand the most important among all American sergeants and their boss, on the other hand he is a representative of all sergeants with the head of the army headquarters.

Pay Grades E9 has both Sadge Major team (Command Sergeant Major). The highest governments in various areas of activity in the US Army are called Command (command). There are, for example, command in the European zone, command in Japan, command in the Pacific Zone, Teaching Command, Material and Technical Support Command. So, with each command, one Command Sergeant Major experienced, which performs the same role as Sergeant Major of the United States Army, but within this command.

Sadgeant Major (Sergeant Major) also having a tariff category E9 performs the same duties at the level of the headquarters of the corps, division, brigades.

Two sergeants have a tariff discharge E8. This is Furst Sadge (First Sergeant) and Master Sadge (Master Sergeant.). The first one always occupies the position that the German company calls us, the second usually occupies the positions equal to the largest company.

Two corporal servicemen (Corporal) and Specialist (specialist) have a tariff discharge E4. The second title is usually assigned in the case when the serviceman performs a specific technical position, but according to which he should not command by soldiers. Once all the sergeants were shared on the team composition and technical and each sergeant approved the title of a specialist 4, 5. 6, 7, 8th grade. To today, one is the only one, a kind of rudiment

Signs on the titles are following:
1. Unlightened signs of the first type:

1. Sadd Majer of TzEu United States Ami (The Sergeant Major of the United States Army). 2. Command Sadgeant Major. 3. Sergeant Major (Sergeant Major). 4. Four Sadge (First Sergeant). 5. MASTE SAD (MASTER SERGEANT). 6. SAD FURST CLASS (Sergeant First Class.). 7. Staff Sadd (Staff Sergeant.) 8. Sadgeant (Sergeant). 9A. Corporal (Corporal). 9b.Specialist (specialist). 10.Revit Furst Class (Private First Class). 11. Pryvit (Private) of the E2 tariff discharge.

In the rank of Pryvit (Private) there are two tariff discharge E2 and E1. Soldier Tarif E1 has no stripes. Usually it is a soldier who has initial training. Figuratively speaking, Pryvit (Private) of the E1 tariff discharge can be assumed as "Novogrena", although this category can be translated and a trained, but undisciplined and non-discharge soldier of the E2 discharge.

2. Unlightened Signs of the second type:

3. Metal signs:

4. Remedied non-metallic signs (embroidered):

1. Sadd Majer of TzEu United States Ami (The Sergeant Major of the United States Army). 2. Command Sadgeant Major. 3. Sergeant Major (Sergeant Major). 4. Four Sadge (First Sergeant). 5. MASTE SAD (MASTER SERGEANT). 6. SAD FURST CLASS (Sergeant First Class.). 7. Staff Sadd (Staff Sergeant.) 8. Sadgeant (Sergeant). 9b. Corporal (Corporal). 9A.Specialist (specialist). 10.Revit Furst Class (Private First Class). 11. Pryvit (Private) of the E2 tariff discharge.

According to the AR 670-1 on the sign of the sage sage Majer of Tze United stats Ami (The Sergeant Major of the United States Army) in the middle should be two stars, but the site "Tagd On Line. The Adjutant General Directorate" indicates that since 1996, he also placed the coat of arms of the USA between the stars.

The figure shows both options of the sign, one on a blue background, the second on green. It is possible to meet both options, but rather one of them. In this rank in the US Army, only one person goes!

On some kinds of uniforms, the differences in the ranks are black and bright yellow-yellow treads with an embroidered signs identical in size and a pattern of unlightened metallic signs or metal unacceptable signs can be placed on the clutches. These fauges are put on the cloth-type mothers, which are part of clothing. These testers are put on black sweaters, on green army shirts with a long or short sleeve (but only when a tie is put), on green shirts for pregnant women (at their request, instead of signs on the collar). However, the right to wear these mugs is given only to military personnel from Croral and older.

1. Sadd Majer of TzEu United States Ami (The Sergeant Major of the United States Army). 2. Command Sadgeant Major. 3. Sergeant Major (Sergeant Major). 4. Four Sadge (First Sergeant). 5. MASTE SAD (MASTER SERGEANT). 6. SAD FURST CLASS (Sergeant First Class.). 7. Staff Sadd (Staff Sergeant.) 8. Sadgeant (Sergeant). 9A. Corporal (Corporal). 9b.Specialist (specialist).

These fauges are produced in two sizes (they are selected by the servicemen depending on the length of the pursuit on the shirt) 10.8 cm long or 8.26 cm. Width in both sizes is the same - 5.4 cm. In the lower end and 4.45 cm. In the upper one. Signs on the clutches are located so that their lower edge be at a distance of 1.6 cm. From the lower edge of the flour.

Placing signs of differences in ranks on clothes.The AR 670-1 document begins to describe the United States Army Uniform with Battle Uniforms (BDU)). Let's start with her and we.

On BDU jackets for hot and moderate weather, cold weather signs differences of the titles are "muffled" type in both corners of the collar and on the headage of a cap (CAP) and helmet (Helmet).

It is curious that in the description of helmets (the one that is now worn) arr. 1980 (PASGT-H) It is stated that wearing signs of differences in the ranks are not provided. Such contradictions in the regulatory documents of the US Army are found more than once. Obviously departmental disunity is characteristic of this army.

The symmetry line passing through the sign must coincide with the line coming from the corner of the collar to the neck. The lower edge of the sign should be 2.54 cm. Above the lower corner of the collar. The drawing is taken directly from the AR 670-1.
It is curious that all the drawings in the black and white document and without faces. The author is just slightly cracked for clarity signs of differences of titles and a crash sign division.

On the shot on the collar clearly visible signs of the difference in the title of teams of the Sadzant Major (Command Sergeant Major) of the US Army School. Pay attention to the stripes "US Army", the stripes named, sleeve stripe (on the left sleeve) of the engineering school and the parachutist icons and the tactical air paratrooper over the stripes "US Army".

Similar placement of signs differences in the combat uniform for the desert (DBDU), Cold Weather Uniform (Cold Weather Uniform)

This uniform is not divided into men's and female. The only uniform, when it is wearing a pregnant woman, is called not a combat, and Maternity Work Uniform (translate as you want).

Exactly the same signs and the personnel of medical institutions at hospital uniforms (Hospital Duty Uniform), food service personnel on service kitchen uniform (Food Service Uniform). They wear equally and men and women. However, on the pilot, in the place. Where the officers wear signs of differences in the titles of soldiers and sergeants wear a regimental sign (heraldic emblem assigned to this military unit).

On flight uniform (Flight Uniform) signs of differences of titles are headed (cap, but not a flying helmet and not a pilot) as well as on combat uniform. Equally for women and men. On the flight overalls and a flying jacket on the left side of the chest, a black leather plate of 2 per 4 inches in size is attached, on which the title of a serviceman is indicated in the third line.

The figure right shows the signs of differences on flight uniform. On the cap is visible sign of Staff Sadge. The corner shows the breastplate, where the position of the Pilot is indicated on top, in the middle line "Erwin L. Denvid", below the title -SSG. those. Staff Sadff and a sign of the US Army - "US Army".

Crews of combat vehicles on their overalls (Combat Vehicle Crewman's Uniform) wear muffled signs of differences are the same as on collars of combat uniform, but the sign is one and is located above the stripe pointing the name a serviceman on the right side of the chest. It is recommended to make these signs to be sewn, not metallic on the pin. It is necessary to eliminate the gearing sign for internally vehicle equipment, which is especially important With an urgent forced leaving of the car. However, in practice, the servicemen prefer metal signs, because They can be worn as needed (the emergence of bosses, buildings, etc.). In other cases, they are not worn at this uniform.
Similarly, the difference between the ranks and on a jacket for cold weather from the set of this same uniform.

In sports uniforms, no signs of differences are not worn.

The type of uniform, which in the Russian army, is usually called everyday, in the US Army is called "Army Service Green Uniform" (Army Green Service Uniform) and it is divided into men's (Male) and female (Famale).
Men's official green uniforms shall be divided into class A uniform (in an open twenty) and class B (in a green shirt with a long or short sleeve).
On an open green kittel (that is, on a class A uniform), the differences in the ranks of soldiers and sergeants are on both sleeves in the middle between the elbow and the shoulder seam. Signs are unacceptable first type (see Hashe). Green background color, i.e., which coincides with the color of the nurse.
On green shirts with long sleeves (i.e., the class c uniforms) signs of the differences in the ranks are rumped on black clutches, worn on the sewn shirtless strains of a pile type (see above). On green shirts (that is, a class uniform in the second option) with a short sleeve when wearing a tie signs of differences in the ranks are the same.
If the shirt is worn without a tie (that is, the class uniforms in the third option), then the difference signs are unlightened by the second type in the corners of the collar. Black clutches in this case are not put on epaulets.

Military persons in the ranks "Pryvit" and "Pryvit Furst Class" The rights to wearing signs of distinction on clutches do not have. In all cases, they carry signs on the collar on the shirt (if this shirt is not put on the cuitel).

For soldiers and sergeants there is another variation of this form, the so-called "army green shaped clothing" (Army Green Dress Uniform). It is only outside the service and is a kind of form for walking to visit, presence in official and informal events, etc. You can call it the output form outside the service. This form is characterized by the fact that under the same green open nod, instead of a shaped green shirt, a white shirt of arbitrary style is worn, but an ordinary black or black bow tie approaching the shaped staple and tie. But this type of form is only with the nod.

  1. Field sample. Most often in camouflage colors.
  2. Military sample. Preferential green, from which he received its everyday name, consists of trousers, beret and nod.

Many people will be interested to know that the generally accepted divisions in the Russian rank ranks are used not only in military affairs. So, for example, in a popular military-tactical game airsoft Some teams actively use the ranks adopted in the army USA .

  2. by contacting the soldier of these troops correctly, you hit it with your wide outlook and high intellectual abilities.

An important feature of the US Army is that among the servicemen are not welcomed by the appeal of the younger subordinate to the eldest officially, by ranking, as is customary in most other armies. The soldier's direct supervision is lower than the rank of raccious - SIR (Sir), if it is a man and Mam (MEM), if it is a woman. The army bosses usually turn to the subordinate or simply named, or according to their title.

If we speak more about the features of the appeal in the ranks of the US Army, it is based on the principle that a higher serviceman calls his subordinate to the group of title to which it belongs. So, for example, the general calls a senior officer - Colonel (Calell), and lieutenant Contacts Sergeant - "Sergeant" (Sirjant), that is, the subgroups of hierarchy in ordinary communication are not taken into account.

Civilian appeal to a military personality occurs in a similar scheme, the only thing that if a person wants to emphasize a respectful or close attitude, he adds - my (May), that is, mine. For example, My Sergeant (May Sirjant).
