MACO private rank insignia

Private is a military rank, the equivalent of which is used by the service organizations of many civilizations. As a traditional infantry grade, private is the lowest enlisted rank in a fighting organization, below a corporal and above a recruit (which is only an actual rank in some cases). In comparison to naval ranking systems, this rank is approximately equivalent to the naval able-crewman rank.

This grade has been suggested to exist in some form in other rank arrangements, such as the Bajoran Militia.

Some rank systems use different grades of private, such as the junior "private recruit," and the more senior "private first class."

The Earth MACO forces used this rank in the 2150s. The insignia patch was a triangular blue field, bordered in gold, with one white chevron under a white star. (ENT Season 3)

During the Q Civil War, which represented the Continuum by an illusion of the American Civil War, one of the Q guarding the tent where Q and Kathryn Janeway were held was referred to as a private by an incoming captain. (VOY: "The Q and the Grey")
