INTRODUCTION
_____________________________________________________________________
Revision: Nil.
_____________________________________________________________________
Reason for Learning:
The badges of rank worn by members of the Australian Army Cadet
Corps are a visual symbol of the rank structure on which the
organisation of the Corps is based. Without this rank structure the
Corps would fast become a body without direction and incapable of
achieving its aims and goals. The badges of rank and titles used within
the Corps are based on the customs, traditions and precedence of the
Australian Army, even though members of the Corps do not form part
of the Army. For the rank structure to operate efficiently within the
Cadet Corps, all members must be able to identify the badges of rank
worn and know their precedence.

Statement of Objective:
At the end of this lesson given suitable instruction, students will:
a. be able to correctly identify each rank from LCPL to
LTCOL, and
b. be able to correctly place them in seniority.

BODY
____________________________________________________________________
Stage 1. Categories.
The ranks in the Australian Army are divided into four basic
categories - they are:
a. Privates, etc,
b. Non-Commissioned Officers (NCO),
c. Warrant Officers (WO), and
d. Commissioned Officers.
It must be noted that the Commission referred to is a Queen's
Commission and the Warrant is a Queen's Warrant.
The ranks used in the Australian Army Cadet Corps are grouped under
the same categories. The first being a Cadet who wears no badge of
rank.
Confirm Stage 1 by questions from and to the class.
_____________________________________________________________________
Stage 2. Non-Commissioned Officers (NCO).
Non-commissioned officers are further sub-divided into Junior and
Senior NCO and they wear their rank on the sleeve.
a. Junior:
(1) LCPL, and
(2) CPL.
b. Senior:
(1) SGT, and
(2) SSGT.
Confirm Stage 2 by questions from and to the class.
_____________________________________________________________________
Stage 3. Warrant Officer (WO).
There are two classes of Warrant Officer:
a. WO Class Two - WOII, and
b. WO Class One - WOI.
Warrant Officers wear their rank on their sleeves. It must be stressed
that WOI is senior to WOII and that CQMS, CSM and RSM are job
appointments not ranks.
Confirm Stage 3 by questions from and to the class and having each
student practice.
_____________________________________________________________________
Stage 4. Commissioned Officers.
Although Officers in the Australian Army Cadet Corps do not receive
a commission they are still classed under this category within the
Corps. Officers in the Corps are further divided as follows:
a. Cadet Under Officer (CUO),
b. Officer of Cadets:
(1) Lieutenant (LT),
(2) Captain (CAPT),
(3) Major (MAJ), and
(4) Lieutenant Colonel (LTCOL).
All Officers wear their rank on the shoulders in the shape of
diamonds except for CUO who have one large diamond known as a
lozenge.
Confirm Stage 4 by questions from and to the class.
_____________________________________________________________________
Stage 5. Precedence.
Officers of Cadets and Cadets hold rank, precedence and command
ONLY within the Australian Army Cadet Corps.
Confirm Stage 5 by questions from and to the class.
_____________________________________________________________________
Stage 6. Addressing by Rank.
The method for addressing different ranks is as follows:
a. Officers - It is customary for all officers to address
their senior as 'Sir'. All warrant officers, senior
non-commissioned officers and other ranks address all
officers as 'Sir'.
b. Warrant Officers - Warrant officers are addressed by
their juniors as 'Sir'. Officers should address
warrant officers as 'Warrant Officer' or, if holding
an appointment such as Company Sergeant-Major or
Regimental Sergeant-Major, the warrant officer is
addressed by that appointment. The terms 'Mr' and 'Sar
Major' should not be used to address warrant
officers.
c. Sergeants, Staff Sergeants and Other Ranks - All
ranks below Staff Sergeant should be addressed by
their rank title. The exception to this rule are those
holding appointments of Chief Clerk and Company
Quartermaster Sergeant where those holding equal rank
or higher may address the appointees as 'Chief' or
'CQ' as applicable.
The addressing of some ranks differs within different Corps. A few
examples these are:
a. Private:
(1) Engineers - Sapper,
(2) Artillery - Gunner,
(3) RAEME - Craftsman.
b. Lance Corporal / Corporal
(1) Artillery - Lance Bombardier / Bombardier.
Confirm Stage 6 by questions from and to the class.
_____________________________________________________________________
Stage 7. Paying Compliments.
Within the Corps, paying compliments is as follows:
a. To CUO - all Cadet Warrant Officers, NCOs and
Cadets,
b. To OOC - All Cadets including CUO.
Confirm Stage 7 by questions from and to the class.

CONCLUSION
_____________________________________________________________________
Clear Up Doubtful Points: Final questions to and from the squad.
_____________________________________________________________________
Test of Objective: Test the objective by the following:
a. Issue the Test sheet.
_____________________________________________________________________
Feedback: Tell the squad what standard they achieved during the
period and if necessary what they can do to
improve.
_____________________________________________________________________
Summary: The main points to remember are:
a. The badges of rank for all ranks LCPL to
WOI are worn on the sleeve.
b. The badges of rank for Officers are worn
on their shoulders.
_____________________________________________________________________
Statement of Relevance: During this lesson you have been taught how
to recognise the badges of rank within the
Cadet Corps. The rank structure of the Cadet
Corps is the basis of the chain of command
within the Corps. If these elements cease to
function efficiently the Corps will fail to
achieve its aims. It is therefore essential that
all members of the Corps be able to correctly
identify the badges of rank worn and
understand their command precedence.
