It is a misleading question. Richard Harrison was an enlisted member of the Navy. Enlisted personnel do not have "rank" in the Navy. I think they mean "rate". Then the answer would be Petty Officer First Class.

Your answer is not totally correct, rank is from E-1 to E-9. At E4 an enlisted man at in the Navy must have both both a rank and a rate. The rate refers to the specialty of the individual. Accordingly, you are correct that he was a Petty Office First Class. However I like to know was his official rate as PO1?

Below, is info from a U.S. Navy page that might clear up the issue of "rate", "rank" and "rating." His "rate" (pay grade) was E-6 or PO1. I believe you want to know what his "rating" was. He was a DK. "The use of the word "rank" for Navy enlisted personnel is incorrect. The term is "rate." The rating badge is a combination of rate (pay grade, as indicated by the chevrons) and rating (occupational specialty, as indicated by the symbol just above the chevrons)."

The insignia here represents a Petty Officer First Class (the rate) who is a Boatswain's Mate (the rating). A rating badge is worn on the left upper sleeve of all uniforms in grades E-4 through E-6. Chief Petty Officers (E-7 through E-9) wear collar devices on their white and khaki uniforms, and rating badges on their Service Dress Blues."

All that has been done is that we both agree that he was a 1st class petty officer, E6. Now what was his rate?
