Uh, “PETTY OFFICER”. I guess someone might say “ officer” but enlisted E-5 is not an “officer”. Epochtimes should know better. 🤔✌
Sorry guys, but "petty officer" is a specific Navy form of address for enlisted in pay grades E-4 to E-6. E-7 to E-9 are Chief Petty Officers addressed as Chief, Master Chief or Senior Chief.
