The Military ranks of the Colombian armed forces consist of the list and ordering of the different military ranks, for the Officers, Non-commissioned officers (NCOs) and soldiers, seamen and airmen ("other ranks") of the Military Forces of Colombia. The ranks are visually represented by insignias placed on the uniforms, usually at the shoulders, sleeves and shirt collars. Note that a literal translation from Spanish to English may be misleading as the rank names don't necessarily follow the customary order used in anglophone military ranks in all cases. ==Foundational law== The professional ranking of the Military Forces of Colombia is founded on the article 217 of the Political Constitution of Colombia,〔 〕 regimented through multiple Laws and Decrees, starting with the Decree #1790 from 2000,〔 〕 up to the latest and most updated one, Law #1405 of 2010.〔 〕 According to the former, the rankings of the military officers were slightly modified: It adds the ranks of "Lieutenant General" ((スペイン語:Teniente General)) for the Army and the National Police, "Air Lieutenant General" ((スペイン語:Teniente General del Aire)) for the Air Force, and "Squadron Admiral" ( (スペイン語:Almirante de Escuadra)) for the Navy. These ranks are identified by 3 (three) stars or suns according to the service branch. This change was instituted in order to more accurately reflect international standards in the command structure used by other armed forces. The maximum rank formally achievable by an officer of the armed forces is that of General or Admiral of 4 (four) stars or suns, according to the service branch. In terms of protocol, the established order for the forces is Army, Navy, Air Force, Police, as established by the Military Rules of Protocol (''Reglamento de Protocolo Militar FFMM'')〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Military ranks of the Colombian Armed Forces」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
