OFFICER CAREERS
Honor, integrity and personal courage are values Army officers embody in their pursuit of mission accomplishment and personal excellence. There are two kinds of officers in the U.S. Army: Commissioned Officer and Warrant Officer. You’ll find the differences listed below.
Commissioned Officers are educated professionals, trained to lead other Soldiers in all situations. They receive training in general leadership and management, with increased levels of command experience as they advance.

Warrant Officers are the technical experts in the Army. They have specific technical or tactical specialties (e.g., helicopter pilots), and manage and maintain many of the Army’s combat systems, vehicles and networks. Once they reach the rank of Chief Warrant Officer Two (CW2), the President of the United States gives them the same status as a Commissioned Officer.
