What's notable is that both Kat, Carter and Six have officer ratings, but are given an MOS in enlisted, warrant officer and warrant officer categories, respectively (MOS codes with three numbers denote Warrant Officer positions). Six's code is particularly interesting as in the current US Army MOS code structure, there exists no analogue - however the 15 series of codes is reserved for Aviation positions, and the 158B code may be for aerospace vehicle pilots, such as for the Sabre. Kat's code seems to make sense in that 18E is a communications specialist, except it's an enlisted position; it may be that the 18E has been redefined as an officer specializing in communications. Emile faces a similar issue, in that he is given the 18B code for enlisted weapons specialist, while he is a warrant officer, and Jun is in possession of a non-existent MOS (it would seem that 180B is meant to marry the warrant officer MOS [180A] with weapons sergeant MOs [18B]). The most likely case to me is that upon creation of NOBLE the members who joined never reclassified their MOS codes, something believed to also occur in units such as the CAG (Delta Force), with recruits coming predominantly from US Army SF and Rangers, retaining their codes (18 series or 11B with V suffix, respectively). This would cause the least amount of contradiction within the team; it's possible that the members could be promoted but still hold a lower rank MOS, and additionally explain why Six is classed as what seems to be an aviation MOS. We're going to disregard the fact that these "soldiers" are in the Navy, as shown by their ranks. Jorge's code in the Navy is accurate.
