Definition:

[GLOBALISE translation] Since the end of the 16th century, midshipman has been used as a term for young men of good family who join a ship to learn the seaman's trade; the term is used both in the merchant navy and on ships equipped for war and cannot be considered as an indication of a specific rank, at least not of a specific step in a hierarchy.
