PROMOTION GIVEN IN THE SERVICE Rise in Honors and Pay Tlustrated Booklet Shows Steady NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, NO '*'MBER 9. 1017. NOVEMBER, THE GREAT‘) OVERCOAT MONTH New York, Nov. 9.—A version of the meaning of the shoul- der straps on the uniforms of offi- cers of the United States Marine Corps, and Navy is contained in a booklet printed and distribyted by the United States Marine Corps Publicity Bureau in its campalgn to stir en- listments. The booklet is cleverly il- lustrated by Corperal Pakl Woyshner of the United States Marine Corps, and depicts the rise of the young offi- | eer from the lowest rung of the' lad- i led placed against the tree of pro- motion. The final illustration shows the officer after he has attained the highest rank in the United States Ma- rine Corps, which is Major General. The shoulder strap rank device of the soldler officer of the United States marines, the soldler officer of the army, and the sailor officer of the navy differ little. The distinctive mark of a United States marine is the globe, anchor, and eagle he wears on his hat. A Second Lieutenant of the Marine Corps and & Second Liouten- ant of the United States Army wear nothing on their shoulder straps be- cause they are at the very foot of t ladder an@ have not yet begun to rise, The rank in the navy that corresponds to Second Lieutenant of the army or marines is called Ensign. pay of a Second Lieutenant of the marines is $1,700 a year. When the officer has mounted the first rung of the ladder he becomes a First Lieutenant and wears one bar on his shoulder strap and his pay is raised to $2,000 a year. The corre- sponding rank in the navy is Lieu- tenant, (jynjor grade), who wears one bar on his collar and a stripe‘'and a half on hig sleeve. The next grade in the United States Marines and the army is that of Captain, and these officers wear two bars on their shoulder straps, which indicates that they have reached the top of this particular lad- der which has enly two rungs. The torresponding grade in the navy fis Lieutenant. Officers up to and In- cluding Captain in the army or marine are known as ‘‘company officers”; in the navy under the rank of Lieuten- ant Commander are “watch officers.” A Captain of the United States Ma- rines commands a base Pay of $2,400 a year. ! The officer has now left the ladder and enters the tree of promotion, the leaves of the lower branches of which are obscured from the sun, and ag a consequence are withered and yellow. He has attained the rank of Major, and wears a gold leaf on his shoulder strap, and his pay is raised to $3,000 a year. The corresponding rank in | the United States Navy is Lieutenant ' Commander, who wears two and a half stripes on his sleeve and a gold leaf on his collar. After the major has worked his way through the dense foliage of the ! tree of promotion, he has arrived near the top, where the light gives | the leaves a silvery appearance. He has now become s lieutenant-colonel and wears a silver leaf on his shoulder strap. In the navy, the correspond- ing rank is commander, who wears three stripés on his sleave and a sil- ver leaf on his collar. The pay of a lieutenant colopel of the United States Marines is $3,500 a year. The officer hag now reached the top of the foliage, and his next move is to capture the eagle which hovers above | the tree bf promotion. This feat makes him a colonel and places a sil- ver eagle on his shoulder strap and raises his pay to $4,000 a year. The corresponding rank in the United States navy fs captain, who wears four stripes on his sleeve and a eagle on his collar. Officers in the army and marine corps, from major to colonel inclusive, are known as “fleld officers,”” while officers in the navy, from lieutenant commander to captain inclusive, are said to have “command rank.” After our officer has captured the eagle there is nothing left for him but to reach out for the star of the brigadier-general. A star is placed on his shoulder strap and his base pay is $6,000 a year. When an officer has reached the grade of general he is known as a ‘“general officer.”” In the navy the corresponding rank is com- modore, (no longer existent,) and he is known as ‘‘flag officer.” simplified The base * HOLLANDERS’ THE GREAT ~ OVERCOAT STORE UPERIOR Woolens, Finest Tailoring, Unlimited Styles, Priced to your ideas of Value.
