Here are the symbols and explanations of each army rank:
The first set is the Enlisted troops, like the normal soldiers and whatnot. That's Private - Sergeant Major of the Army.

The other set is Officers, these are the people in charge of larger groups of men. That's 2nd Lieutenant - General of the Army. The difference between general and general of the army is that the general of the army only exists during a war. He acts as a general over the generals if that makes sense.

And here is the troop/unit sizes:
Squad - 9 to 10 soldiers. Typically commanded by a sergeant or staff sergeant, a squad or section is the smallest element in the Army structure, and its size is dependent on its function.
Platoon - 16 to 44 soldiers. A platoon is led by a lieutenant with an NCO as second in command, and consists of two to four squads or sections.
Company - 62 to 190 soldiers. Three to five platoons form a company, which is commanded by a captain with a first sergeant as the commander's principle NCO assistant. An artillery unit of equivalent size is called a battery, and a comparable armored or air cavalry unit is called a troop.
Battalion - 300 to 1,000 soldiers. Four to six companies make up a battalion, which is normally commanded by a lieutenant colonel with a command sergeant major as principle NCO assistant. A battalion is capable of independent operations of limited duration and scope. An armored or air cavalry unit of equivalent size is called a squadron.
Brigade - 3,000 to 5,000 solders. A brigade headquarters commands the tactical operation of two to five organic or attached combat battalions. Normally commanded by a colonel with a command sergeant major as senior NCO, brigades are employed on independent or semi-independent operations. Armored cavalry, ranger and special forces units this size are categorized as regiments or groups.
Division - 10,000 to 15,000 soldiers. Usually consisting of three brigade-sized elements and commanded by a major general, divisions are numbered and assigned missions based on their structures. The division performs major tactical operations for the corps and can conduct sustained battles and engagements.
Corps - 20,000 to 45,000 soldiers. Two to five divisions constitute a corps, which is typically commanded by a lieutenant general. As the deployable level of command required to synchronize and sustain combat operations, the corps provides the framework for multi-national operations.
Army - 50,000 + soliders. Typically commanded by a lieutenant general or higher, an army combines two or more corps. A theater army is the ranking Army component in a unified command, and it has operational and support responsibilities that are assigned by the theater commander in chief. The commander in chief and theater army commander may order formation of a field army to direct operations of assigned corps and divisions. An army group plans and directs campaigns in a theater, and is composed of two or more field armies under a designated commander. Army groups have not been employed by the Army since World War II.
Greek Lettering: Also, in this RP we will be using Greek lettering to differentiate between groups of soldiers. Here are the Greek letters for referencing.

The lowest ranking robot in the Army, The Scout Bot posseses the smallest ammount of artificial intelligence. They have thick shells, and large wheels for scouting off road. They are not well armed, being meant to avoid attention alltogether. They have only a few weapons, including a highly concentrated lazer meant for cutting obstacles out of it's path, a small gun hidden inside the chest, and extendable hands. Though all of these can be used as a means of defense, they are primarily used for surveying, mapping, taking samples, and other tasks of that sort.

This robot represents a new recruit soldier, and is addressed as E-pvT, or E-private. They are far more knowledgeable than the Scout Bots in the heat of battle. They do not, however, have much more A.I., it simply difers in programming. Where the Scout Bot has a great deal of knowledge concerning geography, locations, and the effect weather and climate on marching troops, programmed into it's hard drive for example, the E-pvT has a vast "understnding" of battlefeild combat. It does not, however, have any decision making capabilties. If left without orders, it will remain in a salute or attention stance no matter what occures around it.
![User Image](https://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/Clutch45/DrakrootBot1.jpg) The E-pvT contains few, but efficiant weapons. It has a small triple blaster on each wrist, and a miniature gun consealed behind each "pocket" on the legs.

The E-pFC, or E-private First Class, is nearly the same as the E-pvT, the only differences being that the E-pFC has more A.I. and a small ammount of decision making abilities, That is, if faced with a possible threat or conflict, it will asess the situation, and deside weather to attack, report to a supirior, or ignore. It also has the ability to discern friend from foe when they are not in uniform, where the E-pvT can only indentify by uniform.

The E-pFC has identical weaponry to the E-pvT.
