National use
Portugal
Second corporal () is an enlisted rank of the
Portuguese Army and the air force. Its rank insignia is a single chevron. The rank is immediately below
corporal (primeiro cabo). The rank of second corporal was created in the late 19th century to replace the former rank of
lance-corporal (anspeçada).
United Kingdom
Second corporal was a former rank in the
Royal Engineers and Army Ordnance Corps of the
British Army. Second corporals wore one rank chevron like lance-corporals, but unlike the latter, which was an appointment, they held full non-commissioned officer rank. They were thus equivalent to bombardiers in the
Royal Artillery. The rank was abolished in 1920.
