What is a fact about a coast guard helicopter pilot?

-@ skipper7 Warrants are Officers, If you are going to nit pick get the facts straight (and the Navy also has flying CWO's now on limited platforms and you have to be E5 to apply)



In the United States military, the rank of Warrant Officer (grade W-1 to W-5) is rated as an officer above the senior-most enlisted ranks, as well as officer cadets and candidates, but below the officer grade of O-1 (NATO: OF-1). Warrant officers are highly skilled, single-track specialty officers, and while the ranks are authorized by Congress, each branch of the Uniformed Services selects, manages, and utilizes warrant officers in slightly different ways. For appointment to Warrant Officer One (W-1), a warrant is approved by the secretary of the respective service. For Chief Warrant Officer ranks (W-2 to W-5), warrant officers are commissioned by the President of the United States and take the same oath as regular commissioned officers (O-1 to O-10).



Informed answers may be nice, but well informed ones are more better.Except of course in the US Army -

Helicopter pilots required only to be Warrant Officers -

It is "so nice" to give informed answers -
I know one who always wore suspenders with his uniform contrary to regulation. That's a fact.
You must be an officer to be a pilot of any sort in the military.
