Officers rank

From 7th Cavalry Regiment Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

An officer is a member of the 7th Cavalry who holds a position of authority. Commissioned officers derive authority directly from a sovereign power and, as such, hold a commission charging them with the duties and responsibilities of a specific office or position. Commissioned officers are typically the only persons, in a military environment, able to act as the commanding officer (according to the most technical definition of the word) of a military unit.
