What if there was no rank in the military; just positions? Would this work?

For example. You are a rifleman. Not an PV2, PFC, or SPC, just a rifleman. Then you are a team leader. Squad leader, manager, etc.

Sounds like your advocating for the return of the Spec 5 and up ranks? Not everyone is cut out to be a leader and there are far too many that had leadership thrust upon them. They made good Soldiers but just aren't leadership material. But without a clearly defined leadership structure, this large of an organization would fail. Just look at the VA....

Just a thought from an old man who is retired from the military and also retired from civilian wprk.
If you think there is not rank within the civilian work place you are mistaken. The major difference is that in the military rank is worn and you know who has what.
Trust me, this is better.

Than what about dual rank folks- MSG vs 1SG, SGM vs CSM or staff folks vs. combat leaders?
