This article deals with the rank insignia of the Austro-Hungarian armed forces, as worn by the Austro-Hungarian Army after the reorganisation in 1867 until 1918. In Austrian armed forces rank insignia are traditionally called ''Paroli'' (pl. ''Parolis'') and are worn as gorget patch or collar tap, appliquéd to the gorget fore-part of the uniform coat, uniform jacket and/or battle-dress. ;See also: == Austro-Hungarian Army == The rank insignia - so-called ''Paroli'' - of the Austro-Hungarian Army (1867–1918) were worn on the fore-part of the sleeves for jackets, but never on shoulder straps of shirts, service jackets, and dress uniforms. They were identically for the Common Army as well as to the Imperial-Royal Landwehr. However, the mountain corps wore additionally an edelweiss since 1907 behind the distinction star(s). The rank or distiction stars of enlisted personnel and non-commissioned officers (NCO) were made from white celluloid, those of the ranks Feldwebel and Stabsfeldwebel have been made from white silk since 1914. The rank stars of the junior officer ranks normally consisted of relief metal.〔Rank stars who consisted of relief metal were officially procured by the military administration〕 Pertaining self procured uniforms, embroidered (from metallic fibre) rank stars might have been selected. The embroidered version was mandatory for staff officer ranks from major (OF3〔The abbreviation "OF" stands for ''"officer / officier"''〕) onwards.〔Austro-Hungarian Army staff officer ranks from major (OF3) onwards had to were embroidered rank stars〕 For all other k.k. badges of the Austrian-Hungarian mountain corps from OR1-rank〔The abbreviation "OR" stands for ''"Other Ranks / fr: sous-officiers et militaires du rang / ru:другие ранги, кроме офицероф"''〕 Jäger (en: hunter/ private) to the OF5-rank〔 Oberst (en: colonel) see also: ⇒ ''main article'' Imperial-Royal Mountain Troops (badges of rank) Even on the field shirts, officer rank stars showed the button-colour of the uniform jacket.〔Officer rank stars basically showed the button-colour of the uniform jacket i.g. gold coloured or silver coloured respectively brass coloured or white alloy.〕 However, staff officers had additionally to wear a galloon on the uniform sleeve. If the galloon colour was silver, the colure of the buttons and the stars had to be golden and vice versa. On the galloon there was a serrated ornament. Generals wore always silver stars on golden galloon. From that derives, that the colour of the rank stars and galloons had nothing to do with the rank. On coats rank insignias had never been worn. Officers of the so-called Kaiserschützen as well as of the "Landwehr infantry regiments number 4 and 27" (also Mountain infantry regiments 4 and 27) wore on their dress uniforms shoulder straps with the imperator´s insignias (not to be mixed up with the particular rank). For any rank description there had to be provided as well an equivalent expression in Hungarian language. Military units, who consisted mainly of Czech, Slovakian, and/ or Polish personal, used unofficially the rank term in there mother language. NCOs were counted to the enlisted personnel, and did not made up a separate rank group. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rank insignia of the Austro-Hungarian armed forces」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
