As in all military organizations, the 4th Alabama has a structured Chain of Command. When you join the company, you will start out as a private. However, there is always the opportunity to rise in rank based on your abilities and performance during the campaign season. Many times soldiers are "breveted" to the next higher rank as the need arises. "To brevet" means to temporarily promote to a higher rank.
As of January 1, 2010, the command structure will be changing. The rank of Captain now belongs to Rick Creacy, 1st Sergeant to Don Green, and Corporal remains Shawn Joiner.
The current (2009) rank structure for the 4th Alabama, Company B is as follows:
Company Commander (Captain) - Rick Creacy
1st Sergeant - Don Green Quartermaster - Shawn Joiner Secretary/Treasurer - Tonnia Maddox Chaplain - Rev. Dudley Clark Marine Detachment - Our Marine Detachment is currently We have 7 Marines on our roll with the most celebrated and respected being Orderly Sergeant Jack Graham.
