tk6589[TK] Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Hi bros, I have a question. I decided to do my TK with the private first class rank. I add only one bar...on the right ---------- but for the other side, is it this place... ----------- or this one ? --------- Edited January 4, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locitus[Admin] Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Last or second to last is what's seen on original helmets. If second to last, only on one ear, never both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingnut65[Staff] Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) That is what is commonly accepted. Bar closest to the face is the first, or front bar. Bar closest to the back is the fourth, or back bar. CRL mentions ear bar rank stripes only for Centurion level, which calls for the ear bars to only have one bump painted black. Just to put rank image in this thread, here it is Edited June 6, 2019 by wingnut65 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 FWIW, that graphic above was made up from a pattern I suggested years ago. They are for fun only and not meant to be canon. Maybe some day some LFL author will retcon it though, who knows... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderZel Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Still, this raises an interesting question that I hadn't considered: when painting your rank bar, does it need to be in any particular spot or could you choose to paint any bar you want?

Sly11[Admin] Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 At the end of the day, the armor is yours, and you can do as you wish with it, but for the sake of the CRL, if you intend to build to Centurion level, then just paint the single bump on each ear. After you are approved, it's up to you. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderZel Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Right, but is there a specific painted bar position for centurion status? The CRL only indicates that only one is to be painted. It doesn't say that a particular bar should be painted rather than the others.

aliens8us Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 As I was a Corporal most of the time in the Marinesand was my favorite rank while Active Duty, I went with the 'rank image' and stuck with Corporal!
