Private was the lowest rank held by enlisted personnel in most armed forces throughout the galaxy. Most common in the Army and Marine Corps of the Galactic Republic, and the Army of the Galactic Empire, it was the first rank attained by those graduating from basic military training. Privates were the rank-and-file of any unit, and served most often as infantry or support personnel.

Most soldiers who were able to survive long enough in wartime, or who served for a set period during peacetime, achieved the rank of private first class. On rare occasions a private could earn direct promotion to corporal or even sergeant, though this was typically done only under emergency field conditions.
