What is the military operational chain of command?

Every military member has an immediate superior. That superior has a superior, and right on up to the President. Using the chain of command means that soldiers/sailors receive orders and ask questions first from/to their immediate superior. "Jumping" the chain of command, by bypassing the immediate superior is greatly frowned upon.


Who is second in command of a ship?

The Captain, or Commanding Officer, or "CO" is obviously #1, and the Executive Officer or "XO" is 2nd in command. After that it's the Chief Engineering Officer or "Chang". Then the Weapons Officer or "Weps", is fourth. Then it goes to the leading enlisted person....the Master Chief of the Command. "First Mate" is a non-military term referring to the person usually in charge of the deck operations aboard commercial liners and merchant marines, and is often 2nd in command. Also known as the "Chief Mate".


How old was Julius Caesar when he became general?

Julius Caesar was not a general. This is because during the period of the Roman Republic there was not a professional career for Roman military officers. Politics and the military were not separate. The military commanders were politicians who held the two of the three higher political offices (the consuls, the praetors) and by the provincial governors. The consuls and the praetors held their political office for one year and when this expired they lost their right to command an army. The provincial governors could hold their office for longer, but when it ended, they, too, lost the right to command an army. Moreover, the Roman legions were levied by those who were entitled to hold military command, rather than the state. Like the other Roman politicians of the time, Caesar pursued a number of activities and political offices. In 69 B.C. he was a quaestor (treasurer). In 69 B.C. he served as a praetor (chief justice) in the Roman Province of Hispania Ulterior (Further Spain) for one year. He did not hold military command. This was held by the provincial governor and his role was limited to judicial responsibilities. He then returned to Rome and became a layer renowned for prosecuting former provincial governors for corruption and extortion. In 63 B.C. he became Pontifex Maximum, the high priest of Roman state religion, whose term lasted one year. He held the office of praetor in Rome in 62 B.C., but did not assume military command in that year. Caesar first held military command in 61 B.C. when was the governor of Hispania Ulterior for one year. He took charge of two legions stationed there, the VII Augusta and the IX Hispana and levied a third one personally, the X Equestris. This is when he discovered he had good military leadership skills. He defeated two Lusitanian groups which rebelled against he Romans. After that he returned to Rome again. In 59 B.C. he became one of the two consuls (the annually elected heads of the Republic), but he did not hold military command as there were no military conflicts in that year. Caesar held military command again in 58 B.C. when he became the governor of three Roman provinces: Galllia Cisalpina (in Northern Italy), Illyricum (on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea)and Gallia Transalpina (in southern France). This gave him the command of the three legions which he had led when he was a governor in Spain and the VIII Augusta, which also had, like the others, been redeployed. When he embarked on his Gallic Wars he also enlisted the X Equestris which he had established when he was in Spain and levied two more legions, the XI and XII Fulminata.
