Why Gibbs' Marine Rank Bothers NCIS Fans

Why Gibbs' Marine Rank Bothers NCIS Fans

Rating: 4; Vote: 2
Over its impressive 17 seasons and counting, NCIS has stood atop the police procedural mountain. The long-running series has a serious knack for not only making the crime drama stories important, but also giving its principal cast fully-realized backstories. One of the few drawbacks to this is that, now and again, issues arise regarding minor character details that leave fans scratching their heads.

Possiblities:
1. Since he did special ops his rank wasn't important just easy access to places and bases. Too high draws attention, too low no access. Because he left on weird terms he couldn't get fast tracked.
2. Conversations between Gibbs and Leon Vance shows he hate politics and may had enemies in leadership that only tolerated but refused to allow him through the ranks without a fight.
3. Not sure for Marines but old army you did not have to continue climbing the ranks. Gibbs is definitely about his buddies so if he could continue to stay in the fight rather than headed for command or a desk job he would have stayed at that rank.
Thoughts?

It literally took me 4 years to move from E-3 to E-4 in the Navy because of the job I was doing in the Navy. I was not a bad sailor, I just had a job that had a low percentage of advancement. You have to choose the right job, and get the right opportunities. Without that advancement can be a real b tch.

My take on it is he may have not wanted all the paperwork, etc that comes with higher rank. my dad was staff srgt in air force, but he got out shortly after vietnam. he said he didn't want to put in all the work to become master Sargeant

it would be perfectly within his character for Gibbs to get busted a stripe or two for disobeying orders to do the right thing in a given situation.
