Military ranks of Malta

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Military ranks of Malta are the military insignia used by the Armed Forces of Malta. Being a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, Malta shares a rank structure similar to that of the United Kingdom, but has no sleeve insignia for its air wing. The Maltese armed forces inherited the rank system of the Royal Malta Artillery through its conversion to the 1st Regiment of the then Malta Land Force.[1]
