Ranks

Officers

Officers within the People's Army act as managers and commanders. While their duties are not always exclusively that of a combat commander, all officers receive a standard of training which allows them to act in that capacity. As of 1st June 2020, all content taught to all officers is in line with the directives of the Urthian Worker's Internationale. In addition, officers serving on and after this date are said to be receiving retrospective training.

Student Officers

Student Officers, of whom are not assigned a commanding post until their final year, attend an intense academic and practical training process. Content taught covers everything from military history, to tactical maneuvers, to signalling and survival. Students in their fourth and fifth year are offered junior command posts at specific deployments, but are not mandatory.

Warrant Officers

Warrant Officers, while not directly officers, receive a warrant from the Department for Defence. Becoming a Warrant Officer is based on a selection of outstanding non-commissioned officers to undergo additional command and control training. Warrant Officers often provide a critical practical advisor role to officers.

Non-Commissioned Officers & Enlisted

Non-commissioned officers (NCOs) provide the ground-level command of their subordinates. This often includes the regimenting of a day, the reinforcement of training and discipline, but also includes combat operations. Enlisted-ranked People's Army personnel form a majority of the numbers of the military branch and generally speaking have no specific command responsibilities.
