Acquiring Rank

Promotions are based on the following table:

Points

Rank

1200

Second Lieutenant

4000

First Lieutenant

10,000

Captain

25,000

Major

50,000

Lieutenant Colonel

100,000

Full Colonel

The point total required for a particular rank is reduced according to the number and type of medals you've received. This means it's very possible to reach the rank of Full Colonel with a point total much lower than 100,000, if, for example, you've been decorated frequently. The point total can be increased though, if you've received an official reprimand for going on sick call rather than taking a dangerous mission. So if you get a mission that you really don't want to try, it's better to end the game and reboot the program than to go on sick call.
