Todo:
Include both COCs explination.

@CaptJames
Please advise on how UNISTAF wants to move forward with:
Discrepancy between how we explain what ranks do on the website and how it actually works. i.e. here.
Note that the officer ranks are described as leaders of an element of a certain size != our organisational COC
Suggestion/Inspiration: We might seperate rank from function. Rank is for organisational COC, function for operational COC.
So a person could hold the rank of Pvt, but have the function of a 2Lt (Platoon commander) for a given mission.

@CplPidu I think what you are saying is that on the current Ranks write up it mentions the ingame role of a Sergeant as well as the out of game one, and that this page should solely focus on the organisation COC?

The roles are covered in the Roles Directory (PL, SL, FTL etc)?

@CaptJames That is one way to go about it.
To summarize:
Hammer in the two COC system, update rank descriptions & remove all references to ingame leadership from https://unitedtaskforce.net/roster/ranks/introduction ff
Review Roles and Positions if out of game leadership gets referenced.

@CplPidu 100% agree.

a section on org/op COC would work very well here.
Maybe even the UNISTAFF blurb per the manual

Sorry if I misunderstood the original comment :)

What you need to know about Ranks

As a member of UNITAF you're assigned to a small group with a single point of contact, the leader of this group is your go to guy for any issues you have, any help you need and the one you will hear from most. In turn, your small group will be attached to a larger group, the leader of this group is someone you can go to if you can't get a hold of your assigned leader and so on.

This structure, is illustrated live here - https://unitedtaskforce.net/roster This structure continues up the chain of command, the more members you're responsible for, the higher your rank.

Explaining our two Chains of Command

Within UNITAF there exist two different, separate chains of command:

• The organisational COC. Represented by rank.
• The operational COC. Represented by the respective operation’s ORBAT.

Organisational Chain of Command

This is the out of game COC, which takes care of all administrative and strategic aspects of UNITAF as a whole. The person directly above you in this COC is your point of contact for all aspects of your UNITAF membership. Those people dedicate their time to make sure that UNITAF moves smoothly and improves itself continuously. This COC is the basis for the rank our members hold.

Operational Chain of Command

The operational COC changes with each mission and can be viewed on the respective mission’s ORBAT. It shows who is in command of each and every element during the mission and we expect every member, regardless of rank, to adhere to this COC while in mission. This COC has no influence on rank and is purely based on the role of a member in a given mission. Those of higher rank may be under the command of those with a lower rank during this temporary deployment and they understand that in this situation, they are a follower.

While many of the members of UNITAFs organisational chain of command are also operational field leaders, not all field leaders are part of UNITAFs organisational chain of command.

How about just replacing the first part of the text, before the rank insignia here, with what is posted above. @CaptJames

Changes have been sent to James. Waiting for implementation on the website.

@CplPidu Added (finally)
