The Ranks, Insignias and Uniforms The military differentiates between ranks through the symbols on the shoulders of service men as well as the type of uniform. The enlisted rank equivalent of private wear a black and white uniform and everything from corporal up wears a blue and white uniform with a gold cord on their shoulder. Military staff wear the officer uniform without the shoulder cord and the shoulder insignias. The dress uniform is the same as the regular uniform but the front is not cut out and there is a hat. All state alchemists enter the military at the rank of Major.
