The Corps of Cadets is also known as "The Maverick Battalion" and it is organized with a cadet battalion staff element and two companies designated "Alpha" and "Bravo" companies.  The Battalion is completely run by the cadet chain-of-command with supervision from the cadre.  The cadet battalion commander and his/her staff is responsible for day-to-day operations, physical training, planning and conducting labs, and the execution of all the Corps of Cadets events.  Each company is commanded by a cadet captain and replicates the chain of command and rank structure as a regular Army unit.  MS IV's (Seniors) are cadet officers. and .  MS III's (Juniors) are cadet sergeants, including the cadet Command Sergeant Major and cadet company First Sergeants.  MS II's (Sophomores) are cadet corporals, and MS I's (Freshman) are cadet privates.
             
 Each Battalion is numbered from the original 1st Battalion in 1902.  The Chain of Command is chosen by the Professor of Military Science with the recommendation of the cadre and the previous cadet chain of command.  Cadet Order-of-Merit-List (OML), performance at LDAC, APFT scores, commitment to the Corps, and grades, are all factors considered.  The Chain of Command (officers) is appointed the week or so prior to the beginning of the school year and usually performs their duties for the entire year.  Positions are assigned not only based on the ranking of the cadet, but are also developmental in nature to enhance the leadership experience of those cadets assigned.
