Does rank/grade determine authority in CAP?
Authority in CAP is determined not by rank, but by position within the CAP structure. Rank is awarded through an individual's progress and achievement within the program, and therefore carries only relational authority. Rank does, however, generally indicate a member's commitment, experience, and service to CAP, and officers (both adult and cadet) are therefore afforded the courtesies expected when achieving higher grades.
