Rank Corrected - Danis was initially reported to have been a Major. During one of our routine follow-ups, we discovered evidence that he was actually a Warrant Officer, not a Major. The mistake is easy to make with low quality pictures, as the only visual difference between the two ranks is that the Warrant Officer is lacking the two thin red lines of a Major, and the star is slightly smaller.
