[B]To my memory (which is far from perfect), Garibaldi was never referred to as a CWO on B5, always Chief of Security, although I wasn't aware that he was still officially an EarthForce officer whilst on B5. [/B][/QUOTE]
I don't remember if it was mentioned on-screen, but every off-screen reference I've seen lists his rank as Chief Warrant Officer, which also covers why his uniform was a different color.
Also, search is broken there, so...yeah. enjoy the lack of navigational potential ;) [/B][/QUOTE]
An interesting interpretation, thanks for the chart.
Unfortunately, it doesn't address why Ryan wore a blue uniform while others with a GROPO rank wore brown. Moreover, Lockely is now a Colonel so one wonders why she would "move sideways" in rank (according to that chart) rather than up. Her role (as far as we know) hasn't changed as B5's CO. But who knows?

Isn't his uniform grey because he works security?
EDIT: I've posted a question in the Buda5 mod thread, if anyone wants to take a stab at it.

That is certainly possible.
