Petty Officer Third Class (abbrev: PO3) is an enlisted paygrade within the Royal Manticoran Navy, the Grayson Space Navy, and the Republic of Haven Navy. It holds the equivalent military paygrade of E-4 within The Royal Manticoran Navy: The Official Honor Harrington Fan Association, Inc. and is the lowest non-commissioned officer rank. In most navies, a petty officer is never referred to by their rank, but rather their rate. So a Helmsman who earned their second stripe would not be called "Petty Officer 3rd Class," but rather "Helmsman's Mate 3rd Class."
