What do the shoulder straps of a junior sergeant look like? How to determine rank by shoulder straps in the police (photo)? Ordinary policeman -

VKontakte has a lot of information: interesting facts, news, articles. One day I came across a post about military ranks RF and quickly memorized them.

Now I decided to write a short article on how anyone can quickly learn them. I remembered it differently myself, but I’ll describe it here accessible language for everyone.

DO IT STRICTLY IN STEPS and by the end of reading the post you will remember all the ranks (military) and the corresponding shoulder straps!

It will take you no more than 5 minutes!

1. Private
2. Corporal

3. Junior Sergeant
4. Sergeant
5. Senior Sergeant
6. Sergeant Major

14. Lieutenant Colonel
15. Colonel

Military ranks

1. Let’s encode some titles with associatively vivid visual images.

Private - carrot bed
Corporal - flute
Sergeant - earring
Major - mayonnaise
Lieutenant - watering can
Colonel - ladle
Lieutenant Colonel - bent ladle
Ensign - Borschik
Foreman - grandfather with a beard
General - crocodile Gena

2. We read and imagine the images, then look at the pictures.

Tomato: there is a row of carrots on the stems (Private), a flute pierces a tomato (Corporal).

Orange: on the leaf there is a small earring (Junior Sergeant), on the stem of medium size (Sergeant), on the peel there is a large earring (Senior Sergeant), in the pulp there is a grandfather with a beard (Sergeant Major).

Lemon: at one end there is a plate of borscht (Ensign), in the middle there is a pan of borscht (Senior Ensign), at the end there are 2 stars.

Grass: one behind the other is a small watering can (Junior Lieutenant), a medium watering can (Lieutenant), a large watering can (Senior Lieutenant), the Captain stands next to him, followed by a fairy wand.

Cloud: at one end there is mayonnaise (Major), in the middle there is a bent ladle (Lieutenant Colonel), a ladle (Colonel), a pregnancy tester with a star.

Marker: On the cap there is a crocodile Gena with mayonnaise (Major General), on the stem Gena with a watering can (Lieutenant General), in the middle Gena with a ladle (Colonel General).

Each item has a specific appearance with shoulder straps.

Tomato And Orange- only stripes (easy to remember)
Lemon— the stars begin (that’s why there are 2 stars hanging on the lemon)
Grass- a stripe and a star appear (fairy wand on the grass)
Cloud— a second stripe and a star appear (pregnancy tester on the cloud)
Marker- zigzag pattern (zipper on marker)

The sequential appearance of stars on ranks is not difficult to remember visually.
The last ones are the General of the Army and the Marshal of the Russian Federation; they are also easy to remember at the end.

Private, Corporal

Jr. Sergeant, Sergeant, St. Sergeant, Foreman

Ensign, St. Ensign

Jr. Lieutenant, Lieutenant, Senior Lieutenant, Captain

Major, Lieutenant Colonel, Colonel

G.Major, G.Lieutenant, G.Colonel

3. Now let’s remember the colors of the rainbow.

Each (red - tomato)
Hunter (orange - orange)
Wishes (yellow - lemon)
Noble (green - grass)
Where (blue - sky)
Sitting (blue - marker)
Pheasant (we don’t need it 🙂)

This way we remember the order of all objects.
Repeat several times from memory.

Congratulations!

Now you know all the ranks in order, and you can name the rank by shoulder straps and remember which ranks correspond to which shoulder straps.

At first you will name it slowly, but with each repetition the speed of recall will increase.
This is how you can quickly learn the ranks and shoulder straps of Russian military personnel.

P.S. If you liked it, repost and write comments. I will publish new posts like this.

Ranks, insignia and shoulder straps of the police of the Russian Federation

Russian police ranks are divided into four groups.
The first group is the junior command staff - sergeants, sergeants and warrant officers.
The second group is the middle command staff - lieutenants and captain.
The third group is the senior command staff - major, lieutenant colonel and colonel.
The fourth group is the highest commanding staff - major general, lieutenant general, colonel general and police general of the Russian Federation.
Police officers are given ranks for life. And upon retirement existing rank at that time, the “retired” attribute is added (for example, retired captain, retired major or retired colonel, and so on)
Russian police ranks are assigned sequentially. A police officer must serve a certain amount of time. In Russia, all ranks are divided into first and second.
The next title in the Russian Federation is not easy to achieve. When assigned, it is given special attention police education. But there are also times when a police officer can be awarded the next rank ahead of schedule, for any special distinction he has made for the benefit of his homeland. Although if a police officer at that time served in the previous rank for less than half of the allotted period, then the early assignment of the next rank or promotion is postponed.
All police ranks in Russia, from cadet to police general of the Russian Federation, have their own insignia and shoulder straps. But how to determine the rank and position of a policeman? Here is a visual table:

This table below is already a little outdated and has undergone changes, but not significant - on the shoulder straps of a private and other shoulder straps there is no “police” emblem next to the button, and on the shoulder straps of a sergeant major, according to the old one, there is a longitudinal wide stripe for the entire shoulder strap, and according to the new one, there is also a stripe longitudinal and wide, but short, which is clearly visible in the photo above. Well, the shoulder strap “General of Police of the Russian Federation” has been slightly changed, mainly in color. And so, everything is the same - the titles are as they are.

Be sure to put on a thimble, even if you are used to sewing without it, since sometimes the needle passes through the shoulder straps with with great difficulty, and you may hurt your fingers. If you find it difficult to pull the needle and thread out of the shoulder strap, you can use pliers or tweezers. 1) First of all, prepare the shoulder straps, i.e. attach all the required insignia to it, since it will be much more difficult to do this on an already sewn shoulder strap. 2) Take the shoulder strap and position it so that the side farthest from the button faces the seam that connects the shoulder of the jacket to the sleeve. At the same time, the upper edge of the shoulder strap, directed towards the back, should overlap the seam running along the shoulder by 1 cm. In other words, the shoulder strap should be slightly moved forward. 3) Thread a needle and fasten the shoulder strap to the jacket at three points: at the corners of the shoulder strap, at the place where it comes into contact with the sleeve seam and in the center of the semicircular cut. Now the shoulder strap will be securely fastened and will not move from correct position during the sewing process. 4) Then very carefully sew the shoulder strap around the perimeter, making stitches in such a way that only barely visible points remain on its surface in those places where the needle enters the shoulder strap, and the thread between two adjacent holes passes mainly from the wrong side (along the lining) of the jacket . Then the thread will not be noticeable even if its color does not exactly match the color of the shoulder straps. In this case, the optimal length of each stitch should be about 1 cm. 5) With the second shoulder strap, follow the same pattern. How to strengthen lapel emblems?

The only way out for those not liable for military service is to first remember a few shoulder straps and corresponding ranks and then gradually learn everything. But if in ordinary life If you rarely meet military personnel or just people in uniform, it’s problematic to remember for the rest of your life. It’s like education, which without practice is considered invalid after a short period of time. Shoulder straps differ in the number of stars and their location and edging in the form of red stripes, which can be located in the middle, on the sides or absent.

This is a marshal's shoulder strap

Army General has 4 stars

Colonel General has three stars

Lieutenant General two stars

Major General gets one star and turns out to be a major lower in rank than a lieutenant

Colonel's shoulder straps

Senior Lieutenant

A lieutenant has two stars and a red stripe in the middle, and a junior lieutenant has one star right on the stripe.

The rank and file do not have stars on their shoulder straps; they previously had the rank of ensign, but apparently due to large quantity jokes title has been abolished. The rank of ensign appeared in the Soviet Union in 1972, and since 2009 it has been quietly eliminated along with the rank of midshipman.

And these are tables, you can look at them and choose the most convenient one for yourself, find the differences and learn.

These are police epaulets.

The rank of a serviceman can only be determined by his shoulder straps. And it’s not at all difficult to do. First you need to see if there are gaps on the shoulder straps - colored longitudinal stripes. The absence of stripes classifies the rank as private or junior to the commanding staff:

empty shoulder strap - private,
one strip (transverse strip) - corporal,
two stripes - junior sergeant,
three stripes - sergeant,
one big badge - senior sergeant,
one continuous stripe over the entire shoulder strap, or stripe located along the shoulder strap - foreman,
two stars located along the shoulder strap - ensign,
three stars located along the shoulder strap in a row - senior warrant officer.

If there is one colored stripe along the entire shoulder strap, that is, a gap, then the rank belongs to the middle command staff and we already have an officer:

one star in the light - junior lieutenant,
two stars - lieutenant,
three stars - senior lieutenant,
four stars - captain,

If there are two gaps, then before us are the faces of the senior command staff:

one star between the stripes - major,
two - lieutenant colonel,
three - colonel.

If there are no gaps and we see big stars, then this is already the highest commanding staff:

one star in the middle - major general,
two - lieutenant general,
three - Colonel General,
four - marshal.

Lowest rank- private (the chase is empty).
After him - the corporal (stripe across).
Then - junior sergeant (two stripes).
After the junior sergeant comes the sergeant (3 stripes).
Then - senior sergeant (one stripe but thick).

After senior sergeant, the officer's rank is sergeant major (Again, one thick stripe, but in this case along the middle of the shoulder strap).
Then comes the rank - ensign (2 small stars already appear along).
Then the rank is senior warrant officer (in this case we already have three small stars along again).
After this comes - junior lieutenant (one * in the middle)
Then - Lieutenant (2*)
Now senior officers
1. Major (1 normal star)
2. Lieutenant Colonel (2*)
3. Colonel (***)
4. General - Major (one Big Star in the middle)
5. General - Lieutenant (2 stars)
6. General - Colonel(3 stars)
Everyone has the same shoulder straps, but the number of stars is the difference.

Ranks in the army, except for the Navy (I'm not strong there).
Rank and file:
So the most junior rank- This private, an ordinary soldier, they usually depict only the branch of the army and nothing else, i.e. The shoulder straps are completely empty.
The next title is corporal- during the chase, one stripe appears across - snot.
Next rank coming sergeant, these are three stripes across.
U senior sergeant one thick strip across the shoulder strap.
The rank and file is ending foreman- this is when there is one thick strip along the middle of the shoulder strap.
Ensigns:
If you see two small stars along the shoulder straps, then this title is ensign.
But if there are three stars, that’s senior warrant officer.
Junior officers:
One small star almost in the middle - junior lieutenant.
Two small stars across - lieutenant.
Three small stars arranged in a triangle - senior lieutenant.
When one more asterisk is added from above to the senior lieutenant, this is captain.

Two stars across - lieutenant colonel.
Three stars arranged in a triangle - Colonel.
Senior officers:

Two big stars along the shoulder straps - lieutenant general.
Three big stars along the shoulder straps - Colonel General.

One hefty star on a pentagon and a coat of arms on top - Marshal of the Russian Federation.
A military man can easily determine his rank by his shoulder straps, because this is the first thing a soldier needs to remember conscript service or a sailor. But for civilians, the stars on their shoulder straps often mean nothing. However, everything can come in handy in life. The soldiers of the army and navy identification marks The uniforms are the same.
- the soldier and the sailor have neither stripes nor stars
- for a corporal or senior sailor - 1 stripe
- junior sergeant (in the navy - senior sergeant of the second class) - 2 stripes
- a sergeant (first class sergeant major) has 3 stripes
- A senior sergeant (chief petty officer in the fleet) has 1 wide stripe
- the petty officer (in the navy, the chief petty officer) has wide and narrow stripes
Junior officers have stars on their shoulder straps and a red longitudinal stripe that runs across the entire epaulette.
- The ensign (midshipman) has 3 small stars on his shoulder straps
- the senior warrant officer (senior midshipman) has 3 small stars
- for a junior lieutenant - 1 star closer to the center of the shoulder strap
- the lieutenant has 2 stars across his shoulder strap
- the senior lieutenant has 3 stars (arranged in the form of a triangle)
- The captain has 4 stars
On the shoulder straps of senior officers, the stars are larger and there are two longitudinal stripes.

One of the largest organizations in the Russian law enforcement system is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, headed by Colonel General of Police Vladimir Kolokoltsev. Employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, based on their years of service, are awarded special ranks in one of three possible categories - police, internal service or justice. The starting point in all three categories is the private. Maximum - not yet assigned to anyone by the Russian police.

Special ranks of the Russian police can only be obtained by adult citizens of Russia who have joined the internal affairs bodies and been appointed to one of the positions of ordinary or commanding personnel. According to Federal Law, these ranks are almost identical to special military ones. There are two exceptions - there are no corporals and marshals, and highest rank- General of Police of the Russian Federation. The main difference from similar army ranks is that there is an additional noun - “police”.

Compositions

The youngest of the five possible compositions of employees is the private. Ordinary police officers do not have rank insignia. The only exceptions are cadets of educational institutions who have the letter “K”. Junior command personnel include sergeants, foremen and warrant officers of the police. The first ones have stripes () - two, three or one wide, indicating, respectively, a junior sergeant, a sergeant and a senior police sergeant.

The police sergeant's shoulder straps have one long vertical stripe. A police warrant officer can be distinguished by two small vertical stars; a senior police warrant officer has three such stars. The middle command staff is also the first officer. It includes almost extinct Russian army junior lieutenants (one small star), as well as lieutenants (two horizontal stars), senior lieutenants (three) and captains (four). All shoulder straps have one vertical stripe - the so-called clearance.

Big stars

For senior command staff (two levels) there are three possible officer ranks- major, lieutenant colonel and colonel. The shoulder straps of the first of them have one average star, the second has two, and the third has three stars. The highest commanding staff of the police, as in the Armed Forces, include generals who wear without lumens. A major general has one star, a lieutenant general has two, and a colonel general has three. Finally, the Russian police have four such stars. All insignia are located vertically.
