Usage in Organized Militaries
A Corporal has varying roles in organized militaries that base their structure on a land army. 'Corporal' is shortened to 'Cpl' in the United Kingdom. In some militaries, soldiers with the rank of Corporal command a small group of soldiers, such as a squad. In other militaries, it is used as a reward for soldiers who show increased activeness and dedication; as proof of this, a soldier will be promoted to Corporal by ranking third in the leaderboard of his military unit, either Damage or Opponents Defeated count.
