Auxiliary Capatin - 1985 to Present

The rank of Auxiliary Captain is one of a noncommissioned Officer.

The trim of an Auxiliary Captain consists of a black braid which encircles a red epaulet.

Low collar consists of two silver “S’s” on two small red patches which are placed on each side of the tunic.

The shape of the red patch was standardized in 2011 based on the shape of the patch used in the US Territories. By 2015, a red enamel pin (red patch and silver “S” combined) replaced the red felt patches and silver “S” pin.

“An Auxiliary Captain is a mature salvationist, beyond the age-limit for full officer training, who holds a warrant of appointment as distinct from commissioned rank, and who may undertake corps or social work similar to that of a commissioned Officer.” ¹
