In the military, a rank is not 'granted', it is earned, and that process is called a 'promotion'. Promotions are earned one of two ways: by meritorious action, or by 'time & grade', whereby the promotion from PFC to LCPL is relatively automatic, assuming the enlisted man/woman has done nothing wrong and has performed his/her duties capably.
