Staff corporal (SCpl or S/Cpl) is the equivalent rank to staff sergeant in the Household Cavalry, ranking between corporal of horse and warrant officer class 2. He may hold an appointment such as squadron quartermaster corporal. A staff corporal wears four point-up rank chevrons on his cuff, surmounted by a crown. Staff corporals are actually addressed as "Corporal-Major" by superiors and usually as "Sir" by juniors, a holdover from the fact that the rank was originally called troop corporal-major.

| - The rank of Staff Corporal appears only in Star Wars Galaxies. In the real world, Staff Corporal is an NCO rank in the Household Division of the British Army, which uses variations on the rank of corporal for all NCO and Warrant Officer ranks. It is equivalent to an infantry Staff Sergeant, or in American usage, a US Army Sergeant First Class or a USMC [[wikipedia:|Gunnery Sergeant]]. Where these corporal grades are used for NCOs, the rank for an ordinary soldier is trooper. As "trooper" is widely found in Star Wars, it may have inspired the reference to "Staff Corporal" in Galaxies. However, in Star Wars, it is the rank title alone that is strictly canon. Where it fits in the rank hierarchy appears not to have been defined.
