Post subject:  Bishop's rank in the military

I've read that Bishop was an Executive Officer/Science Officer, but does he have a rank in the Marines?

I noticed he is wearing dog tags in the final scene when he is cut in half, so there should be some type of rank on his dog tag?

thanks

My guess is Bishop's dog tags simply have his model number. As for the rank, it's probably just a mere title-he's really just an extra piece of equipment that helps run the ship and do non combat jobs in order to free up marines for fighting.

I don't think they would give an AI a rank or recognize him as anything other than equipment.

Thanks, that makes sense.

Has there been any behind the scenes or closeups of his dog tags that you are aware of?

Interesting, where did you get the serial number?

Excellent. In keeping with the format of the Marines dog tags, would it be formatted like the following on his dog tags?

ECA
L. Bishop 341-B
A17/TQ2.0.35117E5


thanks

I'd imagine that'll be from the readout on the SULACO

Would Bishop be submissive to all ranks?

So Hudson ' s rank is below Bishop's?

Ha, do we assume Bishop's first name is Lance by that read out? ;P

The first initial of each character was their real-life initial, on the excpetion of Hicks and Gorman.

I wonder why they didn't go with "W" for Gorman?

I can understand the use of "D" for Hicks as his first name "Dwayne" is actually revealed as a line in the film, but we never actually hear Gorman's first name yes?
