Are chevrons used in all military branches?
The short answer is yes and no. The Army and the Marine Corps have a very similar rank structure, with all enlisted ranks displaying chevrons, with the exception of Privates (E-1 in both services, no markings) and Specialist (E-4 in the Army, similar in look to a parachute). The Navy uses chevrons in enlisted ranks E-4 through E-6, however the chevrons are inverted with the point directed down. The Airforce uses chevrons in enlisted ranks E-7 through E-9. So yes the military uses chevrons in all branches, but some are inverted, and are not applied to all ranks.
