								| I've been trying to hash out a good Russian ranking system for B-Tech, but I can't find two of the highest ranks or any of the enlisted ones. Here's what I have got: 
 Première
 Marshal
 General
 Polkovnik
 Maior
 Kapitan
 Poruchik
 Podporuchik
 Command Sergeant Major
 Sergeant Major
 Corporal
 Private First Class
 Private
 
 Any help is appreciated.

								| I've looked, but often I get pages with not all the info I need, or none at all. I'm also looking for info on the Spetznaz and regular military forces. A little history wouldn't hurt me either. *goes back to search through mounds of sites* Wish I could read Russian.

								| Why not do a search for free russain translators that you can download and translate the text from russain sites. If you go technobable, you can get some things in the internet browser setted so that they can translate russain into english automically. _________________
