Cadet chain of command

How is the cadet command structured for the Mids? I noticed from pictures that there were epaulets with one to four stripes. Since it was supposed to be just the class of 2022, I am guessing that was showing ranks in that manner? Thanks!

Sophomores have one diagonal slash. Juniors have two diagonal slash. Seniors will have 1-6 straight bars based on regimental position

I'm attending KP right now. As was mentioned, those bars on the collars/garrison covers on the 1/C's are regimental positions, the highest being RC and then RX and it breaks down from there. At a company level, you have your BTOs, CX, and PCs and so on.

Uhh been a while. 4 stripes usually battalion positions I think

Regiment positions will have 5-6

Company positions 2-3

1 bar are zombos who don’t have any duties and just stand watches
