In my years of travel, i would say that the uniformed personnel in PRC & Vietnam have the strongest sense of belonging to their respective departments!
I always have a 3 star or a 5 star general greeting me whenever i pass through their immigration & there's always a 5 star general at the door of the hotel that i stay in Beijing!
In time, our prime ministers will be grand marshals and field marshals of our glorious AssEhAft.
We're the only country to have weird sounding positions..
In cabinet we have,
Minister Mentor
Emeritus Senior Minister
Meanwhile in our military we have,
Military Experts
Senior Lieutenant Colonels..

I am waiting for the rank of senior private, then hope for Senior Private-2.
It will be a long time before I can reach a respectable rank.
You've got your wish, sort of. In fact, the rank of private first class (PFC) has been around for a long time.

many countries have private first class. the MEs ranks sound weird though but other countries probably have their equivalent too.
I think we are quite unique in having two parallel rank systems in the same army. The closest would be the political commissars the USSR put into the forces to keep them in check. I believe PRC still has this system.

USSR and PLA do not have a cocked up rank structure called ME
