It is also a rank held by some of the civilian adult instructors in the Army Cadet Force, ranking between staff sergeant instructor and regimental sergeant major instructor. SMIs of the ACF do not hold a warrant and thus are not warrant officers, although their badges of rank are similar to those of an army warrant officer class 2.
