Military ranks of Bolivia

The Army trains all its personnel in the following: Despite being a landlocked country, Bolivia has a large quantity of rivers and lakes which the majority of their naval operations take place on, one example of this is Lake Titicaca,[4] which is shared between Bolivia and Peru.

The Navy, unlike the other three branches, has different specialisations for the NCOs and SNCOs once they reach the rank of 'seaman'.

Once a specialisation has been achieved, the sailors' insignia will be adjusted slightly, to make his/her profession more visible.

This sailor would also be the overseer of each of the Corps, ensuring that this branch's members are fully trained and equipped.

[9] The ranks were introduced in 1968, based on design by the Central American Defense Council (Spanish: Consejo de Defensa Centroamericano; CONDECO).
