m09 Merc Corps Rank Insignia

These are the Service Dress rank insignia used by the Republic Mercenary Corps. Mercenaries operate under two modes of contract: Mission-based, where mercenaries are hired to accomplish a task; and Contractual Period, where entire mercenary units are established for a certain periods of time (usually two-year tours).

Red means the Ground Component
Blue means the Aerospace Component
White means the Navy Component

The rank pins can be used by themselves on the Class A Hot Weather Uniform and the coat.

As these insignia are used by all components of the corps when serving alongside Republic forces, the insignia signify rank grade, though each component has their own designations for them.
