In the United Kingdom, the rank of officer cadet is held by trainee officers in the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, at Britannia Royal Naval College in Dartmouth, and the Royal Air Force College at RAF Cranwell, as well as students who are members of the University Officers' Training Corps albeit that the latter are mostly not trainee officers.

The United States Army, Coast Guard and Air Force use the term "cadet" for officer candidates in the Army and Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) programs at civilian colleges and universities and for students at the United States Military Academy, United States Coast Guard Academy, United States Air Force Academy and Air Force Officer Training School (OTS).

Asker: Chyba jednak nie cadet bo "mój" żołnierz jest szeregowcem. Wersja Jacka chyba lepiej pasuje do tego kontekstu
