'''Corporal''' is the fourth enlisted rank in the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] and the [[UNSC Army]], and is the lowest rank of the [[non-commissioned officer|Non-Commissioned Officer]] (NCO). It is equal in rank to [[Petty Officer Third Class]] in the [[UNSC Navy]] and [[Senior Airman]] in the [[Air Force]].
 
Promotion to Corporal traditionally confers a large jump in authority and responsibility compared to promotion from [[Private (UNSC)|Private]] through [[Lance Corporal]].
 
While both the UNSC Army and the UNSC Marine Corps share the rank of Corporal, the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] promotes Lance Corporals directly to Corporal. Most of the time in the Army, Privates First Class (which are E-3) are promoted to Specialist, and then directly to Sergeant. In some cases, however, they may get promoted to Corporal instead of Specialist depending on combat tours or other military jobs.
