RE:

Can someone tell me the military rankings in order?

E-1, E-2 and so on through E-9. Then you have WO-1, WO-2 and WO-3. After that, you have O-1, O-2 and so on through O-10.

Now, if you want to know what those means, it would depend on the branch of service you are talking about. In the Air Force, you have Airman Basic, Airman, Airman First Class, Sergeant, Staff Sergeant, Technical Sergeant, Master Sergeant, Senior Master Sergeant, and finally Chief Master Sergeant. Then the WO's or warrant officers, but there aren't any in the Air Force, used to be, but not any longer. The for officers, you have Second Lieutenant, First Lieutenant, Captain, Major, Lieutenant Colonel, Colonel, Brigadier General, Major General, Lieutenant General, and finally General. Each branch of the military has their own names for each paygrade, but the paygrades are all the same.

That has all of them. Each branch has their own names for the ranks.

Marines, Army, and Airforce all give their Officers the same title.

The Navy has separate officer titles for ranks. Although the insignia is the same. Such as an Army Captain is an O-3 and a Navy Captain is an O-6 and an Army O-6 is a Colonel and a Navy O-3 is a Lieutenant.

Starting from lower to higher:
