That's what my son said when he was in boot camp. Actually, he said it was very easy to know who to salute when one is a seaman recruit. If it moves, salute it! :-)
I know the officer's ranks in order, ie: ENS, LTJG, LT, LTCD, CDR, CAPT, etc. I just can't recognize rank by the uniform. I can the enlisted rates. That is what I was most familiar with growing up.
LTCD..not exactly..
LCDR
confusing also as Captain is high ranking in Navy.. just below a star; in other branches the Captain is a lower level officer.
Need to sleep.. just penned off a note via FReepMail to sistahs..
