noncommissioned
Noncommissioned generally refers to a rank in the military that is not obtained by a commission from a higher authority. Noncommissioned officers, often abbreviated as NCOs, are those who have earned their position through promotion ranks within the military, rather than being appointed by a government official. They typically hold leadership positions below commissioned officers and are often responsible for the direct supervision of lower-ranking enlisted personnel. However, noncommissioned can also be used in a broader context outside of the military to refer to someone serving in a position without a formal commission.
