Talk:Marine Ranks

Ensign
What about the Engisgn position ?New Babylon 13:19, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Admiral
The way I see it, Admiral is the only position worthy to having its own page, seeing how long it is, and how powerful and respected the position is. 04:31, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Strangely, this whole change seems better now..

Thank you. And, if anyone has any way of jamming Admiral into here, rather than leaving it its own page, please, feel free to try. 18:59, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

I didn't see the forum until now. There should have been a vote since I think every rank should have been merged into it. You can even do tabs if needed. SeaTerror 19:04, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Well, it wasn't just the forum, the talk page in the Marines, rank category, and other places were talking about merging for quite a while. 20:09, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Uh, that said, I find it confusing not to have a subheading above Fleet Admiral for Kong's Rank, Commander-in-Chief. At Fleet Admirals, it simply states Kong (Promoted). To what? 175.145.173.124 13:18, June 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * Commander-in-Chief is a World Government position, and as such is not part of the Marines. This page is for Marine ranks only. Zodiaque 13:24, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

Coby & Helmeppo
In Chapter 432 of the manga Coby and Helmeppo are ranked as Chief Petty Officer and Petty Officer, respectively. Yet here, Coby's a Master Chief Petty Officer and Helmeppo's a Chief Petty Officer. Did someone make a mistake here, or was I reading a different translation?46.33.142.30 21:09, June 27, 2012 (UTC)

Coby and Helmeppo were ranked as "sōchō" and "gunsō" respectively in Ch 432, same as they are on the wiki, so it was a different translation. Zodiaque 06:06, June 28, 2012 (UTC)

general inspector
both the sengoku and the one piece film z pages have general inspector on them. the link leads to this (marine ranks) page which has no refernece to ths rank. I think that because we dont have any information one the rank yet we should remove the link

There is a rank of Major Inspecter held by a marine named Shephered

Rank Groups
I made an organization of Marine ranks that accepts japanese original words (kanji) as a guide. I think we could and should group Marine ranks using what I think is OPverse's rationale instead of US Navy's rationale and structure. However I totally support the use of US Navy's denominations as translation reference of individual ranks.
