Which rank corresponds to O-1?

Which rank corresponds to O-1?

• A. First Lieutenant
• B. Major
• C. Captain
• D. Second Lieutenant

Answer: (D)

O-1 is the entry-level commissioned officer pay grade. In the Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps the rank that matches this pay grade is Second Lieutenant. This is the first rank an officer typically earns after commissioning and it usually involves leading a small unit or serving in a junior leadership role. The insignia for this rank is a single gold bar. Higher ranks in the same services go in order as First Lieutenant (O-2), Captain (O-3), and Major (O-4). So the rank that corresponds to O-1 is Second Lieutenant (and in Navy/Coast Guard the equivalent is Ensign).
