[edit] Bajoran colonels

Could Bajorans have three grades of colonel?

In DS9 Season 2, Day Kannu and Li Nalas were wearing a rank pin identical to Kira Nerys's major insignia, but with one hemisphere filled in with a darker color. Day, in particular was IDed as a "field colonel", and Li was not portrayed as outranking his Starfleet commander, indicating their grades weren't higher than the Cmdr. equivalent lieutenant colonel. Later that season, Lenaris Holem wore a colonel insignia, which was the plain (un-filled in) gold insignia, with an additional gold ring around the outside.

Years later, Kira wore a plain silver version of the (again, unfilled in) gold rank pin, but without the outer ring.

Anyone have any thoughts? -- Captain Mike K. Bartel^talk 18:48, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
