Which individual holds the position of STARS TAP Commander?

• A. C/Toerner
• B. C/Stern
• C. Lt Col Smith, USSF
• D. C/Bernardin

Answer: (B)

In STARS TAP, the commander is the student leader responsible for the unit’s overall direction, and the designation used for cadet leadership is the C/ prefix before a cadet’s name. C/Stern carries that cadet leadership designation, which is why this person is identified as the commander. A real officer with a high rank like Lt Col Smith, USSF doesn’t fit the cadet-led structure of this program, and the other names aren’t indicated as the top leadership in this setup. So, C/Stern is the one who holds the commander position.
