Military ranks of Bhutan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Military ranks of Bhutan are the military insignia used by the Military of Bhutan. Bhutan is a landlocked country, and does therefore not possess a navy. Additionally, Bhutan does not have an air force. India is responsible for military training, arms supplies and the air defense of Bhutan.[1]
