This would lead me to believe they would carry the saber. Also of note is that Warrant Officers are commissioned upon promotion to CW2.Response by CW2 Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 7 at 2019 12:05 AM2019-01-07T00:05:58-05:002019-01-07T00:05:58-05:00SFC Private RallyPoint Member4265313<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The NCO and officer sword are rooted in tradition. The officer Saber is for leading the charge and cutting through foes, while the NCO straight sword is for pushing the troops into battle. <br />If the Warrant Officer Corps had a dress sword to represent their role, I imagine it would be a shiny multitool with a beer bottle opener on it.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 7 at 2019 12:14 AM2019-01-07T00:14:49-05:002019-01-07T00:14:49-05:00CW3 Private RallyPoint Member4265362<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Warrant Officers are officers and apart of the same overall Officer Corps (and CW2's and above are commissioned the same as regular officers).

I witnessed one of them landed through a cooperative effort of the pilot (took a round in the shoulder) and the crew chief (co-pilot was KIA). Hay, dress swords? Strictly for peacetime show and tell duty. I think they should wear part of a rotor blade if they wanted to!Response by SFC Ssg Sabin made Apr 25 at 2019 6:37 PM2019-04-25T18:37:25-04:002019-04-25T18:37:25-04:00Maj Wayne Crist4596264<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hmm how about a Bowie knife.Response by Maj Wayne Crist made May 1 at 2019 5:58 PM2019-05-01T17:58:54-04:002019-05-01T17:58:54-04:00CSM William Payne4606637<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Chief Warrant Officers 2 and above are considered Commissioned Officers.

Some of my Old World relatives that were in the Military in Europe actually did know how to use swords and the ones they wore on their uniforms were actual functional weapons and not decorative. Personally, I don't think somebody should carry or wear weapons (even if it is for dress uniform events) unless you know how to use them (Just My Opinion) As for myself, I have limited training & experience with swords and lots of training & experience with knives and don't carry them around unless its for a functional reason. Of course during my Military Career I never had to partake in an event that required me to wear a sword or saber.Response by MSgt Joseph Holness made May 8 at 2019 11:26 AM2019-05-08T11:26:04-04:002019-05-08T11:26:04-04:00CWO2 Shelby DuBois4623053<div class="images-v2-count-1"><div class="content-picture image-v2-number-1" id="image-329105"> <div class="social_icons social-buttons-on-image">

( no sword ) if a navy Warrant were to carry a sword it would have a black frog and black and silver handle and silver guard with silver scabbard. The warrant appointed officers differ greatly through out our armed forces. Example the navy can only promote to warrant from within the enlisted ranks, normally and a warrant can be i almost any classification 1 thru 4. In the army warrants fly helicopters along side majors. different services have different functions for warrants.<br />ED TAYLOR BMSN, CN , EO2, EN MR, US NAVY<br /> CBT ENG, TNG NCO, SUP SGT, PATHFINDER.

Chief Warrant Officers 2, 3, 4 and Master Warrant Officers 5 are commissioned officers. They would all wear the officer sabre if they wore an edged weapon. (BTW - since I am being technical - sabers are curved and swords are not.)Response by MSG John Duchesneau made Oct 30 at 2020 12:51 AM2020-10-30T00:51:25-04:002020-10-30T00:51:25-04:002019-01-06T23:19:39-05:00
