What are the officers of the Roman army called?
From the site listed below... "Let's start from the bottom. The lowest role of leadership on the chain is that of Decuriones. This man was the senior officer in charge of ten horsemen. He would basically represent that small group of soldiers and, if he was killed in battle, the next most senior person would take his place. The next step up on the ladder is the job of Praefectus. This person was the commander of the cavalry. One more rung on the ladder is the Centurion. He would lead a century. This officer was non-commisioned, and to hold this title, would have to had previously been a sergeant. The following are even higher positions that are reached through an entirely different type of promotion. Only senators could ever get these positions. The Military Tribune is the first on this list. The Tribune was in charge of keeping an accurate list of all the soldiers, noting casualties, and when needed becoming a mediator in minor disputes. The Qaestor was the treasurer of the Roman Army, they would handle the logistics. These people served a term of one year. The commander and chief of a single roman legion, also known as the legion general. The second highest in command would be the Legati. This person served as the lieutenant general. This person was usually between the age of 30 and 40, and would serve a term of 3-4 years. The head man in charge of the ENTIRE Roman Army was the Dux. This person had it all. The Dux has the power to crush civilizations. The Dux has the power to expand the great Empire of Ancient Rome." Aloha
Can i join the deck cadet course.. i've got 53%in PCM?
I don't know what PCM is, but I am applying at the moment to become a deck cadet with the British Royal Fleet Auxiliary, and yo enter that you need a minimum of 150 UCAS points, which are awarded per grade you get for your A-Level examinations which are undertaken in school. As well as those basic minimum educational requirements, candidates are required to pass the RFAIB (Royal Fleet Auxiliary Interview Board) which is similar to the Royal Navy's AIB (Admiralty Interview Board). This is a 3 day course conducted at HMS Sultan in Gosport Hampshire where candidates take part in psychometric tests, practical leadership tests and fitness tests. Depending on the score given for these 3 days, candidates can be offered a place on the course. I know for cruise lines, and other shipping companies, they do not include the RFAIB, which is purely because the RFA is semi-military.
On Wasp-class amphibious assault ships, even though they are used by the USMC, are they commanded and staffed by the USN?
Very similar structure to the big-deck aircraft carriers. The embarked unit (whether the MEU or Air Wing) is just that - embarked on the vessel - guests, if you will. The ship itself has the same command structure as any other Naval vessel. The CO of the ship has final say over anything that goes on on the ship - even within the embarked MEU or Air Wing - but will defer internal administrative issues (such as control of weapons, duty rotation among embarked unit duties, etc.) and minor disciplinary issues by those assigned to the MEU or Air Wing back to the CO of that unit.
