The rank of Chief Petty Officer was given to non-commissioned officers who had shown exceptional leadership in their own areas. A Chief Petty Officer typically commanded a group of enlisted personnel, often independent of direct supervision by junior officer grades. In the mid-24th century, the insignia for Chief Petty Officer was one hollow gold circle worn on the right uniform lapel.<ref name="FASA2012"/><ref name="PO1"/>

The rank of Rear Admiral was similar to that of other senior admirals, but Rear Admirals differed from their superiors in that their positions usually carried a specific geographical area of responsibility, such as a quadrant or sector within [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]] space. Rear Admirals also commanded Task Force Groups of eight to twelve vessels, as well as important ground installations or vessels that fell within their specific area of jurisdiction. Rear Admirals could also command [[Starfleet]] ship construction and production facilities or science and weapons labs, primary base security, security for Federation officials, procurement, and scientific analysis (particularly in sensitive areas such as intelligence gathering or clandestine operations).<ref name="FASA2012"/>

The rank of Admiral was the highest in [[Starfleet]].

Admirals were also responsible for exploration and training craft, as well as Federation colonization efforts. Staff positions encompassed a variety of roles, ranging from diplomatic and scientific to traditional planning and organizational tasks within Starfleet. Separate Admiralty Commands included directorship of Starfleet training operations, diplomatic liaisons with Federation member worlds, and negotiations with newly-discovered worlds. They also included a host of military positions: contingency strategy, weapons research and development, and scientific systems deployment aboard Starfleet vessels.<ref name="FASA2012"/>

<ref name="PO1">"[[Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer's Manual (FASA-2012)|''Star Trek: The Next Generation'' Officer's Manual]]" describes the rank insignia for for Petty Officer, Petty Officer First Class, and Chief Petty Officer being one through three hollow gold circles, respectively. This has been modified to better correspond with the ranks of Petty Officer, Chief Petty Officer, Senior Chief Petty Officer, and Master Chief Petty Officer. Although outside the scope of this entry, this also explains Chief Petty Officer Miles O'Brien wearing a single hollow rank pip in later seasons of ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]].'' Further, the rank of Specialist has been eliminated, which also lines the 24th century enlisted rank structure more closely to that of the 23rd century Star Fleet.</ref>
