Commander
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
This article is about the UNSC commissioned officer rank. For other uses, see Commander (disambiguation).
Commander is a commissioned officer rank of the UNSC Navy, equal in rank to Lieutenant Colonel in the UNSC Marine Corps, UNSC Air Force, and UNSC Army.[1]
Commanders serve as the executive officer (XO) (second-in-command) of a UNSC warship such as a cruiser or carrier, but they may also command their own warship, such as a destroyer or frigate.
