Master Corporal - www.canadiansoldiers.com |
 | | Eventually, corporals who had passed the "B" phase of their leadership training took to wearing a crown over their chevrons, and this arrangement was eventually formalized by having a maple leaf replace the crown, and the new "B" Corporals", as they were known, became Master Corporals. |
 | | In an infantry section, this rank equated to a pre-unification Lance Corporal in terms of responsiblities, though is similar to the pre-unification Corporal in that formal leadership training was required for promotion to that level. |
 | | The general requirements for promotion to Master Corporal included Trade Qualification Level 2 (later Qualification Level 5), a junior leadership course (variously known as Junior Leader's Course (a generic course) or Infantry Section Commander's Course (ISCC)), and a time in the rank of Corporal for a minimum of two years. |
