Two stars and a crown represent which rank?

Two stars and a crown represent which rank?

• A. Deputy Chief of Police
• B. Chief of Police
• C. Staff Superintendent
• D. Superintendent

Answer: (A)

Insignia use symbols like stars (pips) and crowns to show relative rank in a police hierarchy. A crown signals executive or top-level authority, while stars indicate the level within the senior ranks. When you see two stars paired with a crown, that arrangement is designated for the deputy chief, placing that person just below the chief of police. The chief would have a different insignia pattern, and other senior ranks use other combinations, so this specific two-star-with-a-crown emblem is the cue that the rank is deputy chief.
