The pay grade 0-1 corresponds to which rank?

• A. 2nd Lieutenant
• B. 1st Lieutenant
• C. Captain
• D. Major

Answer: (A)

Officer pay grades map directly to ranks. The first commissioned officer level is O-1, which corresponds to the rank of Second Lieutenant in the Army. The next levels go to First Lieutenant (O-2), Captain (O-3), and Major (O-4). So a pay grade of O-1 is the Second Lieutenant. Remember that pay grade determines pay and benefits, while the rank is the actual title and duties you hold (Second Lieutenant being the entry-level officer). For reference, the insignia for this rank is a single gold bar.
