| Milforum Moderator | Actually no. In the Army a Private E-1 has no stripe, A Private E-2 has 1 Stripe and a Private First Class E-3 has a Stripe with a Rocker AKA a Hersheys Kiss. |

| Optio | If I remember correctly for US Army rank insignia on non class A uniform on the collar, it is centered on the point of the lapel and the bottom part of the insignia is no more than 1" up from the point of the lapel. It may have changed in 16 years. though.

| Nuclear Duck Hunter | When I was in the Army, you were a slick sleeve until E-3 which was PFC, Private First Class. There was no rockers until you were an E-6.
