Talk:Rank (Halo 3)

So I was wondering. Does anyone know what Bungie used as their source material for the multiplayer rankings in Halo 3. From what I can gather it's a combination of US Navy (enlisted and officer) and Marine ranks. I guess this makes some sense because of the Marine and Navy presence in the Halo stories. But I'm confused, why not stick with one military branch? Or even better, albeit more limiting, why not go with the ranks of enlisted navy personnel, i.e. recruit, apprentice, petty officers, etc. all the way to Master Chief Petty Officer. This ranking would be most logical because Spartans are enlisted navy personnel.

Achievment problem
The problem I have encountered concerns the Spartan Officer achievement. I have not gotten it, despite having the officer medal and being a captain grade 2. I am thinking it is because I rank skipped from gunnery sergeant grade 2 to Lieutenant grade 2. Did I have to arrive at the first Lieutenant the normal way? Please help me! 75.189.208.232 16:59, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Is that your overall? You only get the achievment if you are a Lieutenant in a playlist Darkraider09 22:37, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

Playlist Ranks
Howcome there is no playlist rank chart (ranks are earned earlier)?

Rank problem
I'm a skill level 10 and I'm not a lieutenant. I'm just getting really confused with the overall ranks and I'm only a recruit. Can somebody help me?
