First class cadet

From USAFA Folklore

A first class cadet is one who is in his or her fourth and final year at the Academy (i.e. a senior). First class cadets are also called "firsties" and serve as the cadet officers in the cadet command structure. Unlike the other three classes, firsties are never referred to as "1 degree", "1 dig" or "1 smoke".
