Yes a HM3 is a third class petty officer. HM denotes that the person's rate (or job person is assigned) in this case it is a hospital corpsman. The Number following shows his pay grade. HM2 is a second class petty officer and HM1 first class petty officer. A third class petty officer is an E-4 which is the equivalent to a Marine Corporal which is also an E-4.

Can second class petty officer and chief petty officer date?

Absolutely, as long as they're not within the same chain of command (i.e., the Chief isn't above the 2nd class in charge of her/him in the same command). Many Chiefs are in fact married to petty officers junior to them.


What are the responsibilities of a petty officer third class?

A petty officer is and E-4 and the same rank as an Army Corporal (or Specialist 4). Petty officer 3rd class is the lowest of the nco ranks(they are called petty officer in the Navy). Each petty officer has a rating(specialization) such as Boatswain's Mate(BM)(Bosun's Mate) or Gunner's Mate(GM), Electrician's Mate(EM) just to name a few so they would be a BM3 or GM3 or EM3 or PN3 (Personnel Man) etc.


Gunner's Mate third Class is what rank?

Pay Grade E-4 (enlisted 4), the lowest rank of a noncommissioned officer (NCO), the same as a corporal in the US Army or Marines. Just above Seaman and below Gunners Mate 2nd Class. Its a type of Petty Officer. The Navy's system is a combination of "rating", (here Gunners Mate) and "rate" (here, Petty Officer 3rd Class) and they are combined into "Gunners Mate 3rd". Petty Officers in the Navy have specialized training, and there are a large number of rates, each with its own special insignia. All Petty Officers wear a sleeve insignia showing their rating and rate. At the top is an eagle, above the insignia of their specialty - for a gunners mate, two crossed cannon. Below that are upside down chevrons (compared to the way an army or marine sergeant wears his). One chevron below is 3rd class, two is second, petty officer first class.


Which is a higher rank in the military an E6 petty officer first class in the navy or a 2nd lieutenant in the army?

Officers outrank enlisted personnel. Thus, a Second Lieutenant - which is 01 - outranks an E6 in any branch of service, whether Navy (Petty Officer First Class), Coast Guard (same rank as Navy), Army (Staff Sergeant), Marine Corps (Staff Sergeant), or Air Force (Technical Sergeant).


Could a Seaman First Class be a Gunners mate in World War 2?

Not at the same time. A seaman 1/c could be promoted to a gunner's mate, which is a type of petty officer, or "rating". A seaman 1/c is roughly equivalent to a private in the army, and petty officers are basically the equivalent of a sergeant. There are many different "ratings", or types of petty officers in the navy, depending upon what job they do. A seaman hoping to become a petty officer in any particular field may be called a "striker" for that rating, meaning that's what he is trying to master so as to obtain a promotion, to the next higher level, as a petty officer 3/c.


Who was the first chief in the navy?

From the official "Chief Petty Officer heritage" page from http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq46-1.htm: "On April 1, 1893, two important steps were taken. First, the grade of Chief Petty Officer was established; secondly, most enlisted men received a pay raise. The question is often asked, "Who was the first Chief Petty Officer?" The answer is flatly: "There was no first Chief Petty Officer due to the fact that nearly all ratings carried as Petty Officers First Class from 1885 were automatically shifted to the Chief Petty Officer level." Exceptions were Schoolmasters, who stayed at first class; Ship's Writers, who stayed the same but expanded to include second and third class; and Carpenter's Mates, who had been carried as second class petty officers but were extended to include chief, first, second, and third classes. Therefore, the Chief Petty Officer grade on April 1, 1893, encompassed the nine rates shown in Table 2."

Article 91-Insubordinate conduct toward warrant officer, NCO, or PO Text. "Any warrant officer or enlisted member who- (1) strikes or assaults a warrant officer, non-commissioned officer, or petty officer, while that officer is in the execution of his office; (2) willfully disobeys the lawful order of a warrant officer, noncommissioned officer, or petty officer; or (3) treats with contempt or is disrespectful in language or deportment toward a warrant officer, noncommissioned officer, or petty officer while that officer is in the execution of his office; shall be punished as a court-martial may direct."

(1) In general. Article 91 has the same general objects with respect to warrant, noncommissioned, and petty officers as Articles 89 and 90 have with respect to commissioned officers, namely, to ensure obedience to their lawful orders, and to protect them from violence, insult, or disrespect. Unlike Articles 89, and 90, however, this article does not require a superior-subordinate relationship as an element of any of the offenses denounced. This article does not protect an acting noncommissioned officer or acting petty officer, nor does it protect military police or members of the shore patrol who are not warrant, noncommissioned, or petty officers. 2) Knowledge. All of the offenses prohibited by Article 91 require that the accused have actual knowledge that the victim was a warrant, noncom missioned, or petty officer. Actual knowledge may be proved by circumstantial evidence. (3) Striking or assaulting a warrant, noncommissioned, or petty officer. For a discussion of "strikes" and "in the execution of office," see paragraph 14c. For a discussion of "assault," see paragraph 54c.

(4) Disobeying a warrant, noncommissioned, or petty officer. See paragraph 14c(2), for a discussion of lawfulness, personal nature, form, transmission, and specificity of the order, nature of the disobedience, and time for compliance with the order. (5) Treating with contempt or being disrespectful in language or deportment toward a warrant, non-commissioned, or petty officer. "Toward" requires that the behavior and language be within the sight or hearing of the warrant, noncommissioned, or petty officer concerned. For a discussion of "in the execution of his office," see paragraph 14c. For a discussion of disrespect, see paragraph 13c. Lesser included offenses. (1) Striking or assaulting warrant, noncommissioned, or petty officer in the execution of office. (a) Article 128-assault; assault consummated by a battery; assault with a dangerous weapon (b) Article 128-assault upon warrant, non-commissioned, or petty officer not in the execution of office (c) Article 80-attempts(2) Disobeying a warrant, noncommissioned, or petty officer.

What is CPO1?

Chief Petty Officer 1st Class or CPO1 is the most senior Naval non-commissioned member (NCM) rank of the Canadian Forces. Its Army and Air Force equivalent is Chief Warrant Officer (CWO). It is immediately senior to the rank of Chief Petty Officer 2nd Class and its equivalents, Master Warrant Officer; it is part of the cadre of Warrant Officers. The French language form of the rank is Premier maître de 1re classe (pm 1). The rank insignia of the CPO1 is the Coat of Arms of Canada, worn on both forearms of the Service Dress tunic and on slip-ons on both shoulders of other uniforms. Unlike other CPO2s and Petty Officers, CPO1s wear the cap insignia of Naval officers, although the brim of the peak cap remains plain, the same as other Naval NCMs. CPO1s are generally initially addressed as "Chief Petty Officer Bloggins" or "Chief Bloggins", and thereafter as "Chief", although in correspondence the full rank or abbreviation is used before the member's name. The full appellation "Chief Petty Officer 1st Class" in speech is generally used only when the "first class" distinction must be made, such as to distinguish between members with similar names but differing ranks, or on promotion parades. CPO1s are never addressed as "Sir" or "Ma'am", regardless of the protocol for their Army and Air Force equivalents; in Naval tradition, the titles "Sir" and "Ma'am" are reserved for officers. One of the normal appointments of a CPO1 is that of coxswain, the senior NCM on a ship; it is roughly analogous to an Army Regimental Sergeant-Major (RSM). Due to the unified nature of the CF, however, it is not unheard-of for CPO1s - especially those of the so-called "purple trades", such as logistics or military police to find themselves filling the appointment of RSM in what are otherwise considered "hard" army units (such as Service Battalions). CPO1s may also hold appointments as the senior NCM in a larger formations or on a base; these appointments, and their respective insignia, include: * Base Chief Petty Officer (BCPO) - the Coat of Arms over crossed crusader swords * Formation Chief Petty Officer - the Coat of Arms over the central insignia of the badge of the Canadian Armed Forces (an anchor, crossed swords and an albatross in flight). * Fleet Chief Petty Officer (Fleet CPO) - the Coat of Arms over a small foul anchor * Command Chief Petty Officer (CCPO) - the Coat of Arms with a wreath of laurel wrapped around the base * Canadian Forces Chief Warrant Officer (CFCWO) - the Coat of Arms with a wreath of twenty-eight maple leaves wrapped around the base and sides. The title of this highest non-commssioned position in the Canadian Forces is not, however, ever referred to as "Canadian Forces Chief Petty Officer" if the incumbent is from the Navy. CPO1s generally mess and billet with Petty Officers and other Chief Petty Officers, and their Army and Air Force equivalents, Warrant Officers and Sergeant. Their mess on naval bases or installations are generally named the "Chiefs and POs Mess".
