British Ranks

From Victory In Europe

British Ranks are ranks used by British divisions. SAS ranks are not included in this article.

The first non-SAS British division to appear was the A9 in ViE Campaign 8, hence this was the first time British ranks were used.

List

This is a list of all British ranks used so far, sorted by campaign.

ViE#8 type

In ViE#8, a simple linear progression rank system was used, without Career System concepts. The border between soldier and NCO ranks was not clearly defined.

The insignia use a combination of rank insignia (front) and divisional avatar (background), to meet new requirements for the forums. They were designed by Architect.
