What is the rank of a JROTC Company Commander?

The rank of a JROTC Company Commander is indeed Cadet Captain. In the structure of JROTC ranks, the Company Commander typically holds the rank that reflects the leadership role over a company-sized unit, which comprises approximately 100-150 cadets.

The title of Cadet Captain is assigned to those responsible for leading and managing the activities of the company, ensuring that cadets receive proper training, discipline, and support. This rank demonstrates a level of maturity, responsibility, and capability in leadership, as the Company Commander must be able to make decisions that affect the entire unit.

Other ranks listed, such as Cadet Major, Cadet Lieutenant, and Cadet Colonel, represent different levels of command or leadership, but they do not specifically correlate to the role of a Company Commander within the JROTC program. A Cadet Major typically holds a higher rank than a Captain and would generally oversee multiple companies or serve at a battalion level, while a Cadet Lieutenant serves as a deputy to the Captain or might be in charge of specific areas within the company. Cadet Colonel would be even higher, typically overseeing the entire battalion, which may consist of several companies.
