Hi Helios88!

I'm not sure of indigenous traditions they may have, however the ethnic groups there are listed as Inuit (88%), Danish and other (12%), and official languages listed as Greenlandic (East Inuit), and Danish.

Hi general_tiu!

I imagine they would base much of it on Denmark's military and naval forces,(if they add a navy or coast guard), however a complete break with the mother country's traditions would not seem out of place either.

Hi everybody! Chuck Anderson here!! Here's more info on sci-fi rank insignia from Battletech. Five of the thirteen clans have no insignia given, and from what I can make out from the storyline, many of those clans have been absorbed by larger more powerful clans. Well anyway, here they are!...........

Hi Everyone!

What form do you think generic rank insignia would take?
Stripes, chevrons, bars, stars, wreaths, various colours, etc.

How elaborate a form could generic insignia of rank take?

Hi Everyone! These SECCESSIONIST NATIONS posts that I've included are meant to be starting points for discussions on what the insignia of rank for these nations might look like should they actually gain independence. Please feel free to contribute your ideas. This is NOT alternate history as these s...

Hey, all. Not trying to be a prude, but can we also include the rank/uniform info? Otherwise, this stuff is all micronations and alt history - which is NOT what this site is about unfortunately. Just my two cents. Erskine Hi Erskine! That's the very thing that I WANT people to include is the rank/u...

Hi Everyone! Presented here are the flag, coat-of-arms and maps of the Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh, (a nation seeking independence from Azerbaijan.) For the armed forces of Nagorno-Karabakh, would their insignia of rank resemble those of Azerbaijan or perhaps some of the other former-Soviet republi...

Hi Everyone! Rotuma would not have a large population once independence came (if ever), so it was my feeling that they would probably have a small force such as the Rotuman Constabulary. Just enough to keep the peace, guarantee their territorial sovereignty and maybe keep Fiji at bay. I have just fo...

Hi Everyone! Presented here is the flag and maps for the Republic of Rotuma. Rotuma is a dependency of the Republic of Fiji, and in 1987, they declared independence as the Republic of Rotuma, though their effort was defeated by the Fijian government. Though still a part of Fiji, discontent remains o...

Hi Everyone! Presented here are the flag and map of New Caledonia.

Hi Everyone! Since we're doing so well with Quebec, I thought that I'd provide some basic material on other secessionist nations, for the purpose of drawing more hypothetical insignia charts. These are all real-life secessionist movements that could one day develop into actual, legitimate nations. Y...

If Quebec gets independent or are independent today, what could its military ranks would look like? Hi general_tiu! I was thinking that they might start anew, and make their ranks similar to that of France, to demonstrate cultural ties to France, and to further distance themselves from Canadian and...

I've seen several of your rank charts, and I have to say I really like the progression of the Master Chief ranks. MCPON should really have four stars, as he is the top enlisted in the fleet. Great work on all your charts! Hi ijnfleetadmiral! Thank you for your kind words. MCPON DOES have four stars...

Hi Falconette! Just as an aside, I've been reading a good alternate history novel that these insignia might fit into quite well. It's called Lucky Strike Green by Timothy Ross, with at least three main nations; the Reich, the Empire Of Japan and the United States. In this novel, there was no WW2, bu...

Hi viroseo9!

As a USAF veteran, I'm interested in seeing what your Philippine Air Force insignia of rank will look like.

Are you going to have a senior enlisted ranks for the various branches, like Sergeant Major of the Philippine Army, etc.

Your illustrations are excellent!!!

Chuck

Hi Chuck, I might try and do a rank insignia for the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, but not as an independent state, more like an insurgent army. I'm not too keen on the idea that they would be independent, pardon my opinion. smilies-08 eoin Hi virose09! I agree with you! I don't want to see the Ph...

Hi viroseo9!

Had you also considered doing rank insignia for the Moro Islamic Liberation Front?

I imagine that if they gained independence from the Philippines, they might have rank insignia with a more "Islamic" theme to them.

Chuck

Hi virose09!

I've had the thought that a good metal, pin-on insignia for warrant officers would be gold triangles, (as the silver ones are used for officers.)

South Korea does something similar, with a gold diamond for their warrant officer rank (and silver for their officers.)

Hi viroseo9! Excellent illustrations! I was at Clark AFB, Philippines in the late-1960's.

Hi Everyone! Actually, it's not difficult to differentiate between one enlisted rank and another in the USAF! Once a person gets used to the stripes, it becomes second nature and a person can tell at a glance what rank the person is. One stripe, two stripes and then three stripes are easy to tell at...
