Basic Military Training Study Guide (BMTSG) Practice Test

Describe the rank insignia of a Senior Airman.

Chevron 1 Stripe No Insignia Chevron of 2 Stripes Chevron of 3 Stripes

Correct Answer:

Chevron of 3 Stripes

Explanation:

In the Air Force, enlisted rank insignia show on the sleeve as chevrons, and the number of stripes marks how advanced you are in the lower enlisted grades. Senior Airman is the E-4 pay grade, the fourth enlisted rank, and it is represented by three chevron stripes. So describing the insignia as a chevron with three stripes matches the actual rank. A single stripe or two stripes would indicate lower ranks, and no insignia would correspond to entry-level or different categories.
