Further to what I posted Colour Sergeants are rare, seeing units don't
go
into battle carrying their regimental colours anymore :) So How it fits
in

Warrant Officers are a different breed than both non-commissioned and
commissioned. They hold a warrant as opposed to a commission, small
distinction BUT IMPORTANT :)
