Navy League Cadet Corps

NLCC Cadets can earn most of the same type of medals and awards as Sea Cadets, and can wear all earned ribbons except annual service ribbon when transferring into the NSCC program.The rank system for cadets proceeds as follows: Recruit (LC-1), Apprentice Cadet (LC-2), Able Cadet (LC-3), Petty Officer 3rd Class (LC-4), Petty Officer 2nd Class (LC-5), Petty Officer 1st Class (LC-6), Ship's Leading Petty Officer (LC-7). Promotions are made by time-in requirement and passing of examinations. The minimum time in rate requirements are four months for lower rates and six months for petty officers and a 75% correct score on coursework and advancement examinations. The last rank, Ship's Leading Petty Officer (LC-7), is almost never attained. A cadet who has successfully completed NLCC Orientation, is advanced to NLCC petty officer third class and serves a minimum of one year of service in the NLCC will go into the NSCC at a higher grade. For the first three ranks, LC-1 through LC-3, you add additional chevrons to the uniform (E2-T). == Ranks ==

The USNLCC follows the same ranking as the USNSCC, with chevrons instead of being silver unlike gold, seen in USNSCC ranks. ==See also==
