A few days ago I was skimming through the various fanfic offerings and stumbled over a piece which had a character in the Marine Corps with a Navy rank, so I decided to post this, in the hope of saving some people some incredible embarrassment. This will be kind of long, since I don’t think the message board format will allow me to post a table.
