Personnel
There are 2 872 800 personnel on active duty , with an additional 4 309 200 on reserve components . Members of the Valarustav military hold a rank , either that of an officer , warrant or enlisted . To determine seniority and eligibilty for promotion , Officers of the same rank or paygrade are distinguished by date of rank or position of office of importance set by law . Those wishing to gain entry into the armed forces , must have adequate qualification in math and science courses and must have completed either their secondary or tertiary education .

Enlisted
After enlistment, new recruits undergo Basic Training (also known as boot camp ) , followed by schooling in their primary Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) at any of the numerous training facilities around the country . Each branch conducts basic training differently. For example , Air Force Basic Military Training graduates attend Technical Training and are awarded an Air Force Specialty Code(AFSC) at the apprentice (3) skill level. All non-combat arms Army recruits undergo Basic Combat Training(BCT), followed by Advanced Individual Training(AIT), while all combat arms recruits go to One Station Unit Training (OSUT) which combines BCT and AIT, while the Navy send its recruits to Recruit Training and then to "A" schools to earn a rating.
Non-commissioned Officers
With very few exceptions, becoming a non-commissioned officer(NCO) in the Valarustav military is accomplished by progression through the lower enlisted ranks. However, unlike promotion through the lower enlisted tier, promotion to NCO is generally competitive. . Junior NCOs function as first-line supervisors and squad leaders, training the junior enlisted in their duties and guiding their career advancement.
While considered part of the non-commissioned officer corps by law, senior non-commissioned officers (SNCOs) referred to as Chief Petty Officers in the Navy , perform duties more focused on leadership rather than technical expertise.
SNCOs act as leaders of small units and as staff. Some SNCOs manage programs at headquarters level and a select few wield responsibility at the highest levels of the military structure. Most unit commanders have a SNCO as an enlisted advisor. All SNCOs are expected to mentor junior commissioned officers as well as the enlisted in their duty sections. The typical enlistee can expect to attain SNCO rank after 10 to 16 years of service.
Each of the three services employs a single Senior Enlisted Advisor at departmental level. This individual is the highest ranking enlisted member within his/her respective service and functions as the chief advisor to the service secretary, service chief of staff, and Congress on matters concerning the enlisted force. These individuals carry responsibilities and protocol requirements equivalent to three-star generaland flag officers. They are as follows:
  • Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman
  • Sergeant Major of the Army
  • Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy
  • Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force
Warrant Officers
Warrant officers usually serve in a more technical and specialized role within units. More recently though they can also serve in more traditional leadership roles associated with the more recognizable officer corps.
Warrant officers in the U.S. military garner the same customs and courtesies as commissioned officers. They may attend the Officer's club, receive a command and are saluted by junior warrant officers and all enlisted service members .
Commissioned Officers
There are five common ways to receive a commissionas an officer in one of the branches of the U.S. military
  • Service Academies
  • Reserve Officer's Training Camp
  • Officer Candidate school
  • Direct commission
  • Battlefield commission
General officers, or flag officers in the Navy , serve at the highest levels and oversee major portions of the military mission.
