Junior officer Junior Officer

rdfs:comment

junior officer, company officer or Company-grade officer, refers to the lowest operational commissioned officer category of ranks in a military or paramilitary. The term, company officer or Company-grade officer, is used more in the army, air force, or marine corps as the ranks of captain, Lieutenant grades and other Subaltern ranks originated from the officers in command of a company or equivalent (cavalry squadron/Troop and Artillery battery). A junior officer was a commissioned officer, typically with the rank of no greater than lieutenant. The term was often used to refer to the early part of an officer's career when he or she had little or no command experience or department head responsibility. In 2369, Ambassador Taxco was embarrassed by the fact that Deep Space 9's liaison for the visiting delegation was a "first year officer", Julian Bashir. (DS9: "The Forsaken") The term may also be used loosely to indicate the relative ranks of two officers, as Kim was considered the junior officer on Voyager's senior staff.

junior officer, company officer or Company-grade officer, refers to the lowest operational commissioned officer category of ranks in a military or paramilitary. The term, company officer or Company-grade officer, is used more in the army, air force, or marine corps as the ranks of captain, Lieutenant grades and other Subaltern ranks originated from the officers in command of a company or equivalent (cavalry squadron/Troop and Artillery battery). In many armed forces, a junior officer is specifically a commissioned officer holding rank equivalent to a naval lieutenant, an army captain or a flight lieutenant or below. In the United States Armed Forces, the term is used by the Navy and the Coast Guard for officers in the ranks of Ensign (O-1), Lieutenant, junior grade (O-2), Lieutenant (O-3) and Lieutenant Commander (O-4). A junior officer was a commissioned officer, typically with the rank of no greater than lieutenant. The term was often used to refer to the early part of an officer's career when he or she had little or no command experience or department head responsibility. Nonetheless, exceptions to this existed: an officer with the rank of lieutenant or lower was not considered a junior officer but rather a staff officer – if he or she served as a department head or other supervisory position in a particular command's senior staff. An example of this was Ensign Harry Kim, who, despite his low nominal rank, served as the Chief Operations Officer, the Operations Division department head, and part of the senior staff aboard the USS Voyager. As department head, officers who would otherwise outrank him instead served under him. The same was true for (provisional) Lieutenant Junior Grade and Chief Engineering Officer B'Elanna Torres. (Star Trek: Voyager). A junior officer was sometimes considered –?colloquially – part of a vessel's "junior staff". In 2369, Ambassador Taxco was embarrassed by the fact that Deep Space 9's liaison for the visiting delegation was a "first year officer", Julian Bashir. (DS9: "The Forsaken") One illustration of the gap between senior and junior officers occurred when, on behalf of Voyager's junior staff, Ensign Jenkins thanked Harry for diffusing the situation with the Series 5 long-range tactical armor unit that threatened the crew – even though they both held the same nominal rank of ensign. (VOY: "Warhead") The term may also be used loosely to indicate the relative ranks of two officers, as Kim was considered the junior officer on Voyager's senior staff. Typical Starfleet junior officers included Ensigns Sito Jaxa and Taurik. (TNG: "Lower Decks" ) On a starship, it was common for junior officers to be assigned to shared quarters. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, TNG: "Lower Decks" , VOY: "Flashback", "Good Shepherd") On Star Trek: The Next Generation, the set of the junior officers' quarters was originally built as Captain Kirk's quarters for Star Trek: The Motion Picture, and would seem to suggest that Starfleet had upgraded its crew accommodations over the years. This seems to be confirmed by Scotty's remark in "Relics" that not even an admiral in his day could have quarters as luxurious as guest quarters aboard the USS Enterprise-D.
