A Major is an Commissioned Officer is the military where as a Sergeant is an Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO). So yes a Major is higher in rank than a Sergeant.
Lieutenant Colonel.
It depends which country and branch of service one is speaking of. The American military does not have the rank of Major-Colonel, the ranks of Major, Lt. Colonel and Colonel all out rank a Captain, unless the Captain is Navy or Coast Guard, then he would be equal in rank to the Colonel. In US Military, in all but the Navy, the order of these three ranks from lowest to highest is: * Captain * Major * Lieutentant Colonel * Colonel A Captiain in the Navy is the equivalent in rank of a Colonel in the Army, USAF or USMC
Colonel is higher than a Lieutenant-Colonel. BTW, a Lieutenant- General is higher than a Major-General.
Yes. A lieutenant colonel is next, then a full colonel (sometimes called a full bird).
