Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for the wealth of responses to my question.
There has been some confrontations among the replies about how there has been a lack of proper research prior to asking this question. I would like to point out that my intent was not to initiate conflict over such a trivial question. I would also like to bring attention to the fact that this question was, in fact, investigated prior to my post. I admit to using Google to look for the answers to most of my questions, and I thank Luigi59 for posting the official Army Command Policy which showcases the answer to my question. I would like to bring up, however, the fact that I would never have had the idea to look under the Deputy Chief of Staff's website, and then under his Command Programs section for an answer to my original question. Yes, some of the older and more experience posters have had their resources limited in their time before the internet, but I just want to say that sometimes the overwhelming number of resources can make it difficult to find the answer to the question. For example, if I were to Google "West Point Ranks Compared to Active Military Personnel," I obviously wouldn't have found the answer to my question. Instead, I would have buried under a number of links which range from "West Point FMWR: Five Star Inn" to "Why Our Best Officers Are Leaving." Now, obviously, the answer was out there as Luigi59 has pointed out. I still have much to learn regarding the internet and specifically the Army's resources, but my main point is that I actually did look for the answer (not just with Google but under Army resources like the Army Field Manuals) to my question and I am humbled and humiliated by those who say that I have not taken the precautions to formulate the answers to my own questions. Yes, I did use Google and maybe I didn't put enough effort into finding the answers to my questions, but I only use the SAF forums as a last resort because I know there are other posts out there which deserve much more attention than my meeble posts. I have learned a valuable lesson today.
Again, thanks to everyone for putting in all of the input. It's appreciated.
