Let's be open with the Chief's use of "specialist". It might have been relative to her MOS, though I doubt it. Such as tech specialist, deck specialist, things of that sort. In the military we often called them specialists too, though I do believe, just like you, that the chief was meaning it in the context of rank. --[[User:QuintusCinna|QuintusCinna]] | Let's be open with the Chief's use of "specialist".

Isn't Cally referred to as a Specialist at some point? --Redwall 21:32, 29 August 2005 (EDT)
Definitely. There's a time when the Chief tells the "Specialist" to go do something. -QuintusCinna.
Well, that just fracks up the whole thing then. Not only do we have Cally in the wrong place and we're missing a rank, but it's an Army/Air Force rank for a Fleet member. :( (On the plus side, Specialists are E-4s though IIRC.) --Redwall 21:38, 29 August 2005 (EDT)
