A generic abbreviation for Warrant Officer is WO. However, the abbreviation usually directly relates to the appropriate rank. The ranks are W1=WO1, W2=CW2, W3=CW3, W4=CW4, and W5=CW5. CW stands for Chief Warrant Officer.
In the Marine Corps they are.
There is no Warrant Officer Grade 2 in the US Army. The ranks of Warrant Officer are as follows:W1 - Warrant Officer - Silver Bar with one black square.W2 - Chief Warrant Officer One - Silver Bar with two black squares.W3 - Chief Warrant Officer Two - Silver Bar with three black squares.W4 - Chief Warrant Officer Three - Silver Bar with four black squares.W5 - Master Warrant Officer - Silver Bar with single black line.
Chief warrant officer ranks go from rank W-2 to W-5. The warrant officer ranks are a division above the NCO ranks, which outclass the enlisted ranks within the military.
A Chief Warrant Officer is technically commissioned by the President, and as such, is able to administer an oath- and they often do, especially in situations where there are no officers around.
Warrant Officers are not responsible for troops or personnel. But, in referring to a Warrant Officer, face to face you would address him as "Sir" as any other officer. If you work with him or are more familiar, he may permit you to refer to him as "Chief." If referring to a Warrant Officer in a conversation with a third party, you would refer to him as "Warrant Officer __________."
There are no longer Air Force Warrant Officers. Until the Air Force Warrant Officer program is reinstated the only way an Aitman can become a Warrant Officer of any rank is to leave the US Air Force.
