With no formal rank structure, each Spartan of the branch is given the informal rank of "Spartan". Each Spartan detachment is under the authority of a Spartan Commander;{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} for example, [[Edward Buck]] formerly served as Spartan Commander of the detachment aboard {{UNSCShip|Meriwether Lewis}},{{Ref/Reuse|H5GLtd}} while [[Sarah Palmer]] continues to serve as Spartan Commander of the Spartans of {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/characters/sarah-palmer '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Sarah Palmer'']</ref> Despite being the ranking Spartan on the ship, Palmer deferred to the [[John-117|Master Chief]] while he was aboard during the [[Battle of Requiem]] with the Master Chief effectively acting as the ranking Spartan during this time.<ref>'''[[Halo 4]]' | With no formal rank structure, each Spartan of the branch is given the informal rank of "Spartan".

Standing and specialization within the Spartan branch is also determined by the personal skill of the individual alone, demonstrated both in combat in the field and in training exercises.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} Spartans can apply to become [[Specializations|Specialists]], proving their abilities in a specific field above-and-beyond the already-high standards of a regular Spartan. Spartans who achieve their Specialist rating are granted access to more specialised and experimental weapons, armour, modifications and equipment which most Spartan personnel are not granted access to. Multiple Specialist ratings can be applied for, and granted.{{Ref/Reuse|Infinity Briefing}} | Standing and specialization within the Spartan branch is also determined by the personal skill of the individual alone, demonstrated both in combat in the field and in training exercises.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} Spartans can apply to become [[Specializations|Specialists]], proving their abilities in a specific field above-and-beyond the already-high standards of a regular Spartan.
