What is the position of an officer who has completed advanced training but is restricted from certain roles called?

  1. Restricted Line Officer

  2. Primary Duty Officer

  3. Special Operations Officer

  4. Commander

The correct answer is: Restricted Line Officer

The designation for an officer who has completed advanced training but is limited in their roles is known as a Restricted Line Officer. These officers have specialized expertise but are restricted from certain primary duties typically associated with unrestricted line officers. This distinction allows the military or aviation organization to utilize their skills in specific capacities while maintaining the operational effectiveness of the force. In contrast, the terms related to the other options refer to different roles within the military structure. A Primary Duty Officer is generally responsible for specific tasks or missions but isn't necessarily restricted in duties. A Special Operations Officer has specialized training for operations that require unique skills, typically with broader role options. A Commander holds authority over a unit and is responsible for executing missions and managing personnel, which is not applicable to someone restricted from certain roles following advanced training.
