Corporal First Class

Corporal First Class

Corporal First Class (CFC) is the highest enlistee rank in the Singapore Armed Forces, ranking just above Corporal and below Third Sergeant.[1] It is awarded to deserving Corporals in the top 30% of their cohort who have held the rank for at least six months. A Corporal First Class is not a Specialist (NCO-equivalent), and holds no command authority, although they may be given higher responsibilities such as appointment as a section 2IC.
