Other Ranks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Other Ranks (ORs) in the British Army, Royal Marines and Royal Air Force (and in the armies and air forces of many other Commonwealth countries) are those personnel who are not commissioned officers. In the Royal Navy, these personnel are called ratings.
In British India, a distinction was made between British Other Ranks (BORs) and Indian Other Ranks (IORs). In independent India, all ranks below that of JCO are referred to as Other Ranks (ORs), as in other Commonwealth countries.
