§ 7225. Rank: warrant officers

Warrant officers rank next below second lieutenants and rank among themselves within each warrant officer grade under regulations to be prescribed by the Secretary of the Army.

(Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 205, § 3575; renumbered § 7225, Pub. L. 115–232, div. A, title VIII, § 808(b)(7), Aug. 13, 2018, 132 Stat. 1838.)

10:593 (2d sentence) is omitted as executed. The words “within each warrant officer grade” are inserted for clarity, since section 745 of this title covers rank between warrant officers in different warrant officer grades.
